    Well i havent done **** on my shoebox lately, but i have a project to do that necisated me to get the front clip mocked up on the shoe so i could shove it outside, nice huh! well a little snow wont hurt it, so anyways heres a pic of it.

    a while back i listed an A coupe body in the cl***ified adds, a guy bought it from me and then wanted me to build it for him, so i started work on it, put it on deuce rails, sbc etc etc, well he bailed on me so thats when it showed up in the cl***ified adds again with a bit more done to it, i had some interest in it but no one was pulling the trigger, so i decided that id do some more work to it and maybe get it driving, well see how far along i take it, but anyways, here some pics of that too, i did the body mounts, put floors in it, reversed the firewall but had to cut a chunk out for the dist cap, so i patched the firewall back in and met it up with the floor pans too, i put the gennie shifter in it, built one header mounted the vega box, and made a good ol mini van seat fit it, now its time for a steering column, and then rear suspension, so ill post some pics of that stuff later, well thats enought typing here are some pics

    That shoebox is killer. You should post some pics of that build if you haven't already.

    Lookin good Jeff. Sorry the shoebox has to brave the cold -- I'm sure I'm the reason for that. :)
