Hey Neil! It was very nice meeting you too!

Shew....every time I think I'm closer to finishing the more I realise I'm not and still have a long way to go. :)
The car should get paint on in the next few weeks and then it's assembly time.
The next place I'd like to be soon is to have the car back on wheels. I'm waiting on Willie Hepburn to finish up my diff (converting it to a LS) and brake spindles (Bigger BMW brakes front and back). Once I get these I can fit up the chassis and put it on wheels.
I've already started with the disassembly of the LS2 and am planning on getting some traction on that this weekend. Very excited for the engine build.
So, there's still lots of work coming up! 8)

I haven't seen anybody strip a Firebird with no fear like that before! What an awesome build!

Can't wait to buy it when you done!

Lets see if I can piece it all back together! :)

How do you sell something after putting so much effort into it?

Thanks Rassie. Getting to the end is a dream...I'm hoping to make it come true.

Love your TA by the way!
