Probably won't be running till spring. Going to take it off the frame and paint and detail the undercarriage. We are now mocking up all the wiring, computer, fuel system and everything under the hood before it comes off the frame. This is going to be a very hard one to get rid of!

Man it sure is nice not to lay on my old back anymore to work on a project! Do yourself a favor and be smarter than me and get one sooner than later!

Now in the process of a full detail. Will be pulling the body off the frame and getting the frame powdercoated satin black. Also painting the bottom side of the body and detailing under the hood.

well, not sure I did you any favors. With all you ended up changing it may not have been the right choice. But I felt it could be finished easily and a decent deal at the time.

The good thing is it will be a great car when you're done with it.
