Nothing like waiting to the last minute, the car goes into the trailer tommorrow headed to SEMA. Well, as of 30 minutes ago, it had never cranked. I have been so nervious all day in anticipation of it starting. First hit of the switch, she purrs like a kitten. Thank goodness, she lives. Now I don't have to push it into the show. :hail:
My hat is off the the guys at Street and Performance for getting it right the first time. :thumbsup:
Look out, redneck headed to Vegas-LOL

Thanks Tony, in fact I am walking out the door now to go load it in the trailer, get a couple new pictures, then load everything else up. We will pull out in the morning and be in Vegas Saturday late.
See everyone there at Steve's place Wednesday night. I will try and post where the car will be also once they place it, but Steveo will know if you find his booth. :thumbsup:

Sorry guys, no actions shots yet, but here are some that should hold everyone until after SEMA :thumbsup:
Scott, I will send you updated ones asap after SEMA. These are posted on a local site here in Tenneesse Wildron and I belong to.
Thanks again Ron.
These are about two weeks old and as you can tell, it was not quite finished then. I drove the car about 10 miles this afternoon after we, with Steveo's help worked thought the TCI program issues. Thank you again Steve.
I will see everyone in SEMA!

We are placing the car in about 30 minutes at the show. Just found out it will be outside at the main entrance. Should be an easy find if anyone is looking for it. :thumbsup:
Update: There are four cars backed up to the building at the main entrance doors to the show. Mine is the one on the left!
Cool, EVERYONE will see it there. That's where Brent's 57 Chevy, Ricochet, was parked when Don Garlitz did a feature on it. :)
Can't wait to see it, Bill. :thumbsup:
