Some funny stuff...
Right before the body got to the painter I had some glassing to do.
Pretty funny from the outside when you don't know what's going on.
I got the chassis home and the body went to these Dave Braddy of Ennis TX.

I visit Dave and checked out what he has done and brought him a set of steps for his Prowler.
This is what he got so far...
This is the team which makes that awesome work.
Now, they estimated end of March for completion of the body work and paint. That is cool and CHEERS to that!!
That's to you guys.

Getting close! Only 3 years, not bad.
I admire the hell out of you scratch builders.
This you deserve!

Hi G-Pete. In the posting/thread about Goodyear lettering, you talk about ordering the rubber Googyear letters and receiving them (great pics) but you don't say where (the company name) you got the letters from.
Could you share that with us?
Cheers
Greg

John, that is a 3x4 modified lift table, similar to the one in the picture below. Just keep an eye on Craigs List. I'm thinking to cut a hole in the garage and make the platform even with the floor. Then I have a lift and a 3x4 foot table right in the center of the "play room"...

Is it weird that it crossed my mind a few times about how much you were getting done over this past weekend? I'm really looking forward to seeing this car on the ground, but also enjoying the journey of the build.
I'm assuming it's not going to stop in a week or two's time when all is tidy'd up. You are moving on to that car hauler next...aren't you?

Yep Allen, it moves pretty fast now (me too).
John, I wish we could make it by this weekend - but I have a day job...
No problem Buzz - thanks.
