    ****, just now catching up to this. Its beautiful, it reminds me of a full scale tether car! I mentioned way back at the beginning about how I liked the Chevy hood emblem on the front. Black paint really makes you look at the lines. I love it.:D SUCCESS!

    xderelict, the S. Omaha visionary has proven to one and all, Yes you can polish a turd, and wished it was in your garage at night.

    As many others have said here about ****'s vision, plus his making his vision come to life, Yep..you did good ****...You did very good.

    Knock'm dead down there in Austin this week-end.

    Best wishes

    It was good to see the other members of the S. Omaha turds last night, as well as those from the Omaha Roadburners

    All I can say is wow.
    Just went through the history and you really turned to on this thing.
    Amazing what deadlines do to 4 year builds!


    TP

    I could imagine making a mold of this thing,
    and then repopping them for a one-design 6-banger circle-track "hoodlum" cl***.

    Great looking ride ****.

    I can really appreciate the artistic vision that you started with and carried through the project.

    It certainly shows!

    Pulled the motor and put in a new rear main seal. Took the front suspension apart and had it powder coated. Sololobo stepped up big with his many connections. Thanks Larry.
