      Well this car is done so I thought I would give this thread an ending, since I see so many threads in this section hanging open with no ending.
      I finished the car 2 hours before we left for the power tour in june of 2012. My Dad wanted me to drive it, since my car wasnt ready due to pouring all of my time into this car. So the girlfriend and me ran the complete tour, had alot of fun, the only issue was a sticky solenoid for the air ride. Put on 3500 miles in a week.
      We got the car home to wisconsin and it sat until my Dad came up for the Car Craft Nationals is St. Paul, MN. We took it there for the show, and had alot of fun. I spent alot of time explaining the car to Dad, and helping him get used to it. He had a ball, and was amazed at how much attention the car gets.
      Here is Dad getting it ready for the show.

      These are the trophies they hauled home from some shows in Arkansas and Missouri

      Dad took the car home after the Car Craft show. A shot of it on the trailer for its long ride home.


      This was the last time I saw the old girl in person. A very bittersweet day for me

      So one day they took the car to Georgia to a show in Hiawasee. Some guy from a magazine saw the car and loved it. Took a bunch of shots of it and it ended up on the cover of the Crusin Style Magazine, and a 2 page article. Dad was really happy!

      The car now has about 7 thousand miles on it. This year I am still trying to talk Dad into doing the Power tour with it. My car should be ready I hope, so there shouldnt be much stopping him.We will se what happens in June!
