    Very cool - I'm green with envy. I'd be driving something like that every day.

    How about a pic of that with your coupe?

    Chris, You are a true craftsman. You are doing this all by yourself. The parts you make are clean, simple and functional. I think you are going to be having some fun with this roadster pretty soon !

    I think that's the kind of car that drew me here in the first place.

    sweet

    a cl***ic recipe followed to perfection

    I like the idea of paint finish ch***is with "in progress" look for the body
     
  11. Beautiful! I'd call it done and start driving it.

    No, I did a lot of moving stuff around to get everything to fit. It's snug, but nothing is cut

  26. I love it! except you should paint the body to before you put it all back together. I'll drive up and to prep the body for paint while you're working on the paint the frame and suspension parts.

    Chris,

    It looks awesome dude. I love it!! Don't paint the body, cause then I'll feel guilty about not painting mine! :)

    Great job.
