Drive wheels off it for us guys that are holding wrenches and scratching our heads and asking ourselves how a mild rebuild turned into a 4 year project.

Hey good job :thumbsup: and of course a fine project at least you get to drive it it has been 15 years and all sorts of trials and tribulations for me with my 69 Firebird project.

Kudos to you that you are able to drive it now so "ENJOY" :drive:

Since I bought mine 14 yrs ago I have a wife, then two kids and then the business, = a 67 covered in dust. No time LOL Also not anywhere close.

Oh I feel your pain on the project delay. At least you still have it as I have been made so many offers over the years to sell but NO is always the answer. As I sold my low mileage 68 Pontiac Firebird 400 to join the military and that was something I said I will never do again.

I will see this project through one way or another :yes:
