    Well Two roofs and a few missed deadlines later, we finally finished the Thunderbird. The last few weeks before the show have been crazy, but it was worth the lack of sleep. This was my first time at the GNRS in Pomona, and it was great. Besides all the bitchin cars to see, there were lots friends to visit with. Just a great weekend. Here are some shots of the bird. Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures. Kevin

    Hey Kevin,

    The T bird is very kool!! We were talking about it just a while ago. I had some
    friends that went out there and I needed an on site opinion about the Bird.
    They loved it!! Do you have any pictures with the hood shut. Sorry I'm a kustom
    guy and I gotta check out the lines. Love the grill treatment and I have to check
    it out with the hood shut.......

    Kongrats on the build

    Happy Trails,

    Mick
