Dude, seem to have somehow missed your thread ----I have been busy with life for the past 6 months---have not had much in the way of time to spend online. Color is awesome--you guys have way too much money these days. Is Greg Weld sponsoring all of you guys or what?

What's the first event we will see you and the car at--if you had to guess? Congrads on all of your progress---and sorry to hear about you knee surgery.

Car is crazy gorgeous buddy! Might need to lean on one or two of your resources to help me out with a small cosmetic detail with mine. I'll PM you later...

Hey Dougie - gonna miss you at SEMA. How are all those Optima cars gonna get parked for the photo shoot? Appreciate the comments. The car will hopefully be done sometime early next year. Still too early to predict, but I hate sitting on the sidelines at RTTC. Twice was enough...

Ron --- I'm sure it's posted somewhere but figured it's faster to just ask...

What grey did you use??

Looks to me like all Cris has to do is some assembly??

Hey Greg - it's a PPG Ferarri factory color...Griggio Silverstone. Sounds a little upper crust for guys like you and me...haha

Assembly is something I am/was really looking forward to after the car came home. But watching all the killer work on Blue Balls I really wanted Cris to do my plumbing and that's where it started. Some of the mods require assembly to get it right so hopefully he'll leave a little bit for me to do! Blue Balls also got me to rethink my ride height - not too low, but it may take some fab we think. We'll get some drivetrain weight in the car and see where it goes. He'll also cut my tranny tunnel so we can drop my engine in and get my pinion angle correct. He's also gonna weld my DSE rollbar and a few other tidbits.
