    Hi Guys
    we started this about a year ago and made super progress but like most projects it has stalled and we need to get back on it. I showed my daughter Micah how to use the plasma cutter and she went to town.. next she learned how to use the wire welder and did alot of the welding. We bent up 1 1/4 tubing for the frame and it has front and rear air bags..it lays out on the rockers. The outside will be skinned in engine turned aluminum and we want it to have a old aircraft feel to it. The dash is a sectioned 60 chevy an it still has a little glove box (for lip stick)LOL . The motor is a nice little 322 nailhead with a t-5 5 speed

    Well You've got mad skills, and it sound like your daughter is well on her way to having mad skills as well. I'm really impressed with the cars you've built. Good to see you here.
