Correct me if im wrong but I believe they are without power due to the Hurricanes in Florida.

Nope, we've got power down here in So. Fla. I'm pretty sure Jagarang is around the Miami area as well, and we really didn't get affected at all by the Hurricanes. The damage was all north of here. (But Frank's shop is around Orlando I think, so maybe that has something to do with it.)

[Jagarang]

Brian nailed it on the head!! I'm in Miami and we suffered little to no damage from the 4 storms. Franks shop IS(again Brian is right) in Orlando and was hit significantly by ALL 4!!! How's that for luck. The shop and all the cars are AOK but the power was out for a total of..thinking....thinking....SIX WEEKS or there abouts!! That closed our window for the Year One show in GA and has us in a holding pattern for the time being. In addition to that, Frank had alot on his plate with the storms affecting his people, friends, and properties so he needed and deserves to be left alone to get all his ducks back in a row. There was one other LITTLE TINY problem involving one of his appendages , while painting my motor, that involved an exorbitant and theatrical display of pissing, moaning, and tear squirting ......snicker snicker!!! I'll let him explain. Franks in Las Vegas for SEMA for a bit...some of you may see him.
ASK HIM ABOUT HIS BOO BOO!!!!!
The car has been in construction for a very long time and I can't wait to drive it, but Frank's a great guy and friend(dare I say), and as I've told him before...He deserves the time he needs for himself, he gives the car the time it needs and MORE(not to mention a POUND OF FLESH IN HIS ESTIMATION), and my checkbook needs all the breathers it can get!!

EWWWW LOOK AT MY POST COUNT!!!!!I guess I was feeling a bit EVIL when I started ing Frank!!

[Bulldog455]

Kevin, I really like your ride brother...just wish my Firebird looked anywhere close to that good. I can only afford what the allowance Unlce Sugar gives me every two weeks. So for the mean time Ill just sit and drol...keep up the good work.

Just wondering if you made any progress on the 69 Kevin.?


Bob S.

[Jagarang]

LOL...You know it's taking too LONG when your getting called out by your car buddies! I'll have some pics soon. just trying to get enough done to make things interesting. Stay tuned Bob and friends!

Kevin did get wood a couple days ago, quite litterly! Twice, First when wood trim arrived at the shop, and again later when he saw the pictures. Still waiting for a few more parts and we can get working and stay on it for more then a couple days before we add another cool feature that stops us. Did he tell you about the fuel injection? The 4L80E? The shrifter? The 4 C5 Corvette buckets? Yeah, we have made a few changes along the way.
It will be fantastic. Kevin has a clear vision and dedication to the project.

[Bill Howell]

Nice wood there Kevin!LOL
That stuff looks killer. Nothing looks better than the work they put out. I really dig that console.

[PRO TC]

from what ive seen its going to be one killer bird.

The wood looks nice Kevin. I guess you didn't come up with a ralley pack set up. Has Joe got the radio done yet?

Mike

[ProdigyCustoms]

And on the same day, the old man Bill Howell got a bit of fiber in his diet. Carbon fiber that is. here is a sneak peak at the steering wheel. We have a shop we are working with that is fantastic. the work they did on kevins and bills car is incredible as this stuff looks better in person then in the pictures.
If anyone is interested in having wood or carbon fiber inlays, consoles, done, you can contact us at Prodigy.

[CAMAROBOY69]

WOW that wood interior is turning out really really nice. Looks great Kevin and good job making it look good Frank.

[Jagarang]

Hey Mike...
The car has full factory Rally guages, but NOT the stacked kind like these...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW ...perhaps you can see why...1700 and reserves not met! I've got the hood tach and in dash circular rally package. Mine look more like these with a hood tach, these are in a GTO though...

Joe is done with the radio, he's just waiting on the stereo components we ordered to complete the system, i.e. amps, speakers, etc. I think he said Aug. first he would receive them and send them to Frank.

Can't wait to get this thing rolling again. It's been....um..mmmm...12 years since it moved under it's own power!

[CAMAROBOY69]

12 years!!!!! Your definetly going to need a towel in your lap when you take it for a ride. For the. . you know. . wood.

That did end up sounding much worse after I wrote it! Oh well! I was going to edit it but I'm not sure what that would do to Adams "Quote".

Thanks God we cleared that up before Allen read it!

Frank..BUDDY..you gotta find that "Image Stabilization" button or your digital camera!!
