We're done a week early!
On Sept 12th the car was a bare shell on a rolling chassis. 800 hours later, it looks like we are going to take the Vette around the block tomorrow. I was fully expecting that we were going to be working on it right up to the time it went into the trailer for SEMA. I mean aren't all car projects supposed to finish right down to the wire? It sounds killer, no leaks, everything seems to be working great. I guess we just get to make 'er look purdy for when we pull the cover off in Vegas.
/ just thought I'd blab while the coffee kicks in this morning
// looking forward to you guys seeing it in Vegas.

No, we aren't going into the car building business....it just seems that way at times. However next project is on deck - the 53 Stude (building that one to do some testing out on our 3-link and new spindle)

That is hot. Are those Ferrari horns I see? Mandatory for shoo'ing goats out of the way on those twisty mountain roads.

A week early huh? Are you sure you didn't forget something?
The craftsmanship looks awesome guys.
Wish I could see it in person.
KenIf there is a hard way to do something, I'll find it!

Hey thanks guys. I'm glad that you diggit.
Mr.Rupp - How about I send the bill to Zinke?
Steveo- The horns are from Hella. 118dB of ear-splitting German goodness. When you say for sho'oing goats off the road, are you talkin about goat, goats or Bill Howell type GTO goats? Or both?
boodlefoof- More pics after SEMA.......but here's one more of the underside.
Car gets scaled tomorrow....will share the numbers.
