    Man, You are showing a great combination of skills. Really love the wooden part of the body. The fit and finish are more than superb. Looking forward to the finished product. The V-10 in the inst cluster - does it hint of the coming powertrain ?

    Update:

    The car is in the upholstery shop right now, due to be done in about a month. In the mean time, I have to lay down some jet black base/clear on the fenders, hood, running boards, etc.

    Unfortunately, I will most likely not get the first test drive before the snow flies in a couple months.

    cool project, wish you had chosen to go with 4 doors to throw people off and for them to think it might have been a factory car

    its looks like it is going to be an outstanding car, at least the wood work looks outstanding.

    So what do you think, guys?

    A few blasts down the highway so far and the usual new car bugs to work out, but it's nice to finally be near the finish line.
