    Very inspiring to say the least! In a world where big dollars seem to rule, it is so refreshing to see someone build something they want completely fueled by ambition and elbow grease. I studied the Cheater's thread for their conversion, and have followed your progress as well. The HAMB is rich because of threads like this. As a father of two with modest earnings and a rough 33 4 door I look to you as my professor! Wonderful work....a true hot rod!

  11. Done yet? Come on Andy we're waiting....

    I was just thinking, driving this thing to Michigan for Sins of Steel would be a great warm up for the Bonneville trip.

    So then, it's settled. We will see you there. ;):D

    well... it needs a little attention in a few areas yet but I think I can safely say that we're nearly finished making dust. One more good once over with 220 on a soft block and I'm calling it done!

    How did you get 3 people to do mud work?

    I planned a mud party for my car, but nobody showed up, not even me.
