Dr. Design:

Great Car!

I happen to have one myself, same year except cherry bone stock. Can't wait to see what you do with yours. Hope you keep us posted with pictures and information.

Good luck with it.

One of the most beautiful designs ever to roll out of Detroit. Improving on the classic looks will be a real challenge. I hope you can pull it off. I will be watching this project closely. Best of luck.

Oh, yeah: Are you keeping the original X-frame?

Any progress shots? We would love to see it progress. We have one also, but it is only going to be a driver. Famous last words!
