I am kind of slow.

One nice thing to report, I was up in my dad's Junk yard sunday and found an 89 with good hood hengens, gray interior, and Quarter windows.

I don't have enough time to go that far. I need to be done in time to give it to my wife for chistmas.

Once all the prep is done I will seal the car to keep everything down.

The car went to the Frame Guy about 4 weeks ago. He was slow but finally finished it yesterday.

Strut tower was a bit out. and the front was wide, but he got it back in shape. I go to pick it up tomorrow and get started on it again.


this is how much it was out

Keeper for sure! That's why I married my wife! She drives the 90GT (it's actually hers not mine).

We have arguements about who's car to build up. We share the same money, so she has half the money and all the p***y so needless to say, hers is getting all the parts.

See my 351w thread, its for her car, while my 68 coupe sits on the back burner.
