I've got two projects:

1) Get the toploader into the fastback. I hit a rough patch financially, but a soon as I get payed at the new job I should be able to get a speedo cable and gears to get the job done. Hopefully in the next month or so.

2) Get the fox body on the road. I've been working on it at school for the past couple weeks and have gotten a lot done. The major damage is mostly pulled out, I just need to get the right A pillar pulled out to mate up with the door again before I cut off the roof skin. Then on goes the new one:)

I got back from Persian Gulf deployment in August, so Im dragging the track car out this winter and getting her shipshape for 2010. Need to work on brakes, strut rods, exhaust, and carb, plus new tires. Hopefully she'll be ready for Road Atlanta in March.

Yea, I have been talking to Nick about that already, if we can work out a deal he will be flying over in his home made Submarine to help we work on my car. I asked him for a few reference pictures of his previous projects and i was well impressed. Let me know what you guys think.

Some people are very creative. Although nick must be a lurker over here since he stole Craigs Gas Filler Thing. The tennis ball thing is priceless. LMAO

He did? where did you see that? I don't care, that's why I shared with you guys but I have been following his build on the Eleanor site and didn't see that. Maybe cuz He knows I look at it there.
