Car looks fantastic! That front-end is perfect.
When this first started I thought to myself "This guy is nuts!! There's no way he's ever going to finish that car". I'm very impressed at what you have done, and to be honest, I'm envious of what you've been able to do. Makes me want to buy a welder and learn how to weld.
You definitely have a car to be proud of!! Well done
Its a complete car now. The interior is finished, trunk is finished, everything is plumbed, wired and bolted on. I started it up last night as I was watching the Packer game.
