    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

    Here are a few shots of the car. Just needs to be tuned, suspension setup and a few miles to work out the bugs. And a good cleaning and detailing to get some of the building dust off of it.

    After doing this car I am done building cars. I have no desire to put myself though this kind of headache again.

    But I find one of these in steel all bets are off.
