thanks guys. i don't know if people get tired of looking at fabrication pics or not. i am a picture taker, i have a lot of pics of the build so far.

riceslayer, i just spent a hour looking through your engine bay thread, you did a good job. i'm sure your glad you decided to fill all them holes. its been awhile since we filled and smoothed ours, i forgot how many holes were there and how horrible it looked before. your motor is very nice looking, love the black against the white.

I wouldn't say i'm a pro, well not yet at least. i haven't built enough cars yet to be a pro thats what my dad would tell me, but thats a nice compliment. it just takes practice doing this stuff, thats how you get better. if you just think about what your doing and take your time, anything really isn't that difficult.

I have grown up with cars, my dad has taught me a lot. then i went to school a couple years ago for collision repair and all that. also took a high performance fab class, that taught me a lot about roll cages, tube bending, metal working, welding well just more practice welding. my dad is a professional welder so i have learned most of my welding skills from him. I sometimes think i could do some of this work in my sleep. i also have a wild imagination, i think about cars and how to make them better constantly.

well i got took some updated pics today. i will upload them in a few

Jesus, amazing work. Seems like the car is going to weigh about 500 pounds more just in welding wire!! Keep up the good work! What color is the interior? Black?
