    Got 'em. Seven years is a long time to stay with it. Most cars get started then become a place to stack boxes in the garage. Well done.

    Thanks again for all the comments.

    seven years doesn't seem that long, but a lot of **** happens in a short time. I was thinking of the thing's that have changed in my life since I started this car.

    Bought my first house
    built a new shop
    got married
    bought a business
    had first child
    started second business
    bought new home and moved
    building new shop

    There were times when I got burned out on the project, there was even thoughts about selling her, but the Wife is into cars as much as me so it was easy to spend "Her" money for parts.

    Tman was good insparation, his T project kept me motivated, the HAMB of course was really good at getting my *** out in the garage. I think the HAMB drags last year really got me going to get the car done, for sure one of the best times I have ever had!!!!
