Default After 6 long years, she is back!!

Finally after 6 long years, I got my baby back! I built her from scratch in 2003/2004, then because I never drove her, I sold her to Brad (Allfaith). From the day she left, I have been trying to get her back. About 10 days ago, I was talking to Brad and finally convinced him to sell her back to me. I just got her back on Sunday. I couldn't sleep for the past week! I just want to thank Brad for taking care of her and only putting 800 miles on her.

I have already taken her by Eric@ Griffith's Metal, he was the talent that just finished my '71 Camaro. We plan on doing some updates to her, new upper & lower a-arms, new spindles, front runner, new wheels and tires. I plan on driving her alot! I am building a new home and with a special "man cave" for her and her friends, she will have a special place there...

Congrats SW! Nice garage, can't wait to see what you do for upgrades as well as a mancave for the toys!
Just a question I notice the lift is not bolted to the floor? Makes me nervous with such nice cars.

Thanks, I actually built it completely then in late 2006 I sent it to DSE and had them mini tubb it, build the exhaust system, fuel system, subframe connectors and install the Baer brakes.

Hahaha, thanks again for taking care of her, I'm sure you will find something soon! Btw, I might take the bird back off the hood, but everyone likes it..

I have never bolted any of my 4 post lifts down, not too many earthquakes here in TX.

Here are the plans for the Man Cave..
