Biggest reason for not moving so fast , as I have to make money. So I have to work on the money making everyday projects first. Ty's car gets shuffled in and out of the work rotation based on if time is available. I know a lot of folks want to see it done, and God knows nobody wants to see it go home more than me. But right now I have to do what keeps food on the table. After it gets back from the two shows up north. Its nothing more than fluids and a few little things and shes ready to tune and tear up the road.

Chad - feed your family first and then worry about Ty's car. I am certain Ty doesn't mind.

It's not just about the car!
NOT AT ALL!!! One of the biggest things I've gained from this project... (other than a totally bitchin' car that exceeds even my wildest imagination!) is a lifelong friendship!!  ... Quite a few actually!
Please keep in mind that Chad, Jerry and Josh all have full time day jobs and families AND that they built the FREEDOMBIRD completely in their spare time working only nights and weekends! 
This build is not just about the car... it's about this incredible community of car guys and the friendships built along the way... 
Greg, watch your six for a JetStream Blue "bunny" comin' up fast!

Very cool Ty. I am glad to see the car getting the attention. I can't wait to see it on Power Block. Do you have an idea on the AIR date for that?
