Only 2 days in this one and we are not in a hurry but it is coming along fairly well IMO.
It is a bare shell with 31 spline rear 8.8 with 3.73 gears and disc brakes. No fuel tank, k-member or interior. Hopefully be putting it back together next weekend if time allows.

I posted on your post about the trailer for your car being taken to Dacula/Lawrenceville but never saw you respond.
All is great here! How about your side of the world?

I am planning on painting this one red-fire metallic with the wheels below. Already have the K-member, A-arms and a lil somewhat modified 358 that should make it a decent street car. Thinking of going with a C-4 in this one so I don't have to swap the pedal assembly. Rear seat delete and a decent stereo system with heat, A/C, full interior and hopefully running in the high 10's on radial tires.

I run across them from time to time and you can usually find them on Ebay anytime.

It started off as a few projects for me and my son to build together and sell but when we were through with them the wife didn't wanna sell them because of the time spent together building them. Then of course we started a few more projects, etc. and here we are. It is almost ridiculous now but why not right?
