Thanks for the compliments guys! I wanted to put up a build thread, but first my laptop with most of the pictures died, now my new laptop doesn't have a slot for the type of card reader in my old digital camera. It never ends. LOL.
If I get a chance, I'll start a build thread to show the work that went into the car. I took the less is more approach, and it was stripped to bare metal and brought back as you see it. It's essentially a bolt on style car as you can see. The bodywork was done professionally, along with the shortblock assembly and machine work. I did the rest. Frank at Prodigy helped me purchase alot of the big stuff like the brakes, tranny and rearend, wheels, etc. :thumbsup:

I would keep it as well, that is a very nice bird. I'm sure the market is not the greatest to get top dollar right now.

Maaaan...and I was just about to buy it this weekend.:rofl: :rofl: Just kidding! Glad you get to keep it. That would have been heartbreaking.:( Take my right testicle before you take my car.

Ya man, just like everyone else has stated, nice looking bird and you did a very good job with the build. I think it's also good that you were able to hang on to it. Now go out and enjoy the fruits of your labor!!!

Josh -- Killer car -- glad you're not having to sell it now!
Hey - after losing all that data on your laptop - remember to get yourself a BACK UP DRIVE with part of that raise.
One thing people forget about computers and digital pictures -- you lose them and it's like having a house fire...
Back up drives are CHEAP INSURANCE.

10-4 on the backup. My new Dell has online back-up, so I'm gettin' with the program, but plan on doing a manual back-up as well! My bro-in-law said he could help with the data removal, so I just gotta get the laptop to him sometime...but if he can't do it, I'll be calling in the offers!
:thumbsup:
The absolute last thing I expected this year was a raise...they said we barely eeked them out last year. It was just enough to take the edge off. The man upstairs must've taken pity on my 2 years of suffering in order to build it! LOL!:unibrow:
I plan to enjoy it this summer and finish all the little details so it's ready to rock first thing in the Spring. God willing, next winter I can look into a few upgrades. I really, really want a 4-link and mini-tub, as well as aluminum heads and EFI. :willy:

Thanks for the compliments, I must say your car was a major factor in my decision to go with the TTII's. Beautiful work man!
