Sorry???....... Best compliment I've received on this forum, thanks.

Yep, your car pics are great but when you have your family, your kids and or any other little person helping on your project that makes the pictures so much more special.

Thank you for sharing the pics.

For the money, I'm very satisfied with them. Their website looks like it was designed in the 80's, but it works.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I showed my kids what you posted, they think they're pretty big stuff now. I think it's great.

Great project, the roll bar mounting looks good to me, but I'm not technical in that area.
Great job involving the kiddos, they will remember these times forever, my kid was in Kinder enjoying tools and using the crawler, years later he gets to learn how to drive in the car.... B-I-G grins, priceless.
Garage builds rock!

Thanks, kids definitely add to the build. Kids turn your car into more than just a car.

Started getting the subframe connectors in. When aligning the subframe for connectors install I found that my previous rear body mounts holes were off. When the shop replaced my floor they blew the holes out with a plasma cutter that I tried to salvage, they were off but I thought they would be close enough. It would of always bugged me even if they would of worked, so I'm glad I had to address it. Cut out a section of subframe and welded in a replacement panel, measured and cut out new body mount holes. Now my subframe is aligned and all body mounts are perfect. I received a new welding helmet for Christmas so Jake was able to watch some welding for the first time.

Decided to go with DSE subframe connectors and try/trying to sell my Custom Works 2G connectors. I switched because there's no doubt the DSE connector will provide more structural stiffness, better ground clearance, and provide another great foundation for the cage to be tied in. They took me a lot longer than I expected, they're definitely worth the work though.

I picked up some DSE mini tubs from a member, so that's the next project.

Very cool build Curt. It's nice to see a later 2nd gen being built to this extent among the flood of 1st gen and early 2nd gen cars. The T-tops are particularly cool! This will be a very cool ride when it's done, looking forward to seeing more!

Thank you, looking forward to working with you on a rendering.

I’ve had to put the car on hold for awhile due to life’s roadblocks, but I’m ready to get back at it. Some exciting parts will be on there way very soon.

Awesome can't wait to hear what's coming. I'm looking forward to working with you too. Not only can a rendering help you sort out the visuals, seeing it every day hanging on the wall or on your computer desktop does a great job of keeping the progress motivation moving forward.

Hey Curt!! Have been this about you and wondering how your progress is going. I had to put my Chevelle on hold and am now trying to decide weather to continue it just sell the whole project. I have spent soo much money on it and am afraid I will lose a lot of money. So will see how it goes.

[Zspoiler]

Looks like you are progressing nicely Keep up the good work
