    Latest progress. Body back on the frame today for a final test fit prior to drive train install. Had to see it looking more like a car.

    I like the '48 Ford Monsoon Maroon coupled with the Navarro parts. It's a nice subtle tribute.

    JJ thanks we are getting there. Here's latest work from the weekend. Motor is at paint and we got the T5 from Bob Parks Saturday. Seats on the way and interior guys coming. I'm dying to get it on the road. Need to visit the Iron Lords as soon as this is rolling.

    Here's the latest. Still have wiring, interior and final clean up on paint but making good progress. The motor sounds fantastic and soon on the road. Will have the car at Autofair.
