I love how the beginning of this thread had a bunch of trolls posting "train wreck" and "Sell your car"

A year later, your critics have seemed to crawl back under their rock as you have been kicking **** and taking names with the amount and the quality of work you have demonstrated to be able to do....

You are building one sweet ride......

LOL....good for you NYF, good for you....keep up the "honest" and "hard" work! You da MAN!

It looks like you are having a shop do all the body and prep work? I would hate to see the bill at the end of this process but kudo's on making your own.
