Where to start....
We'll, I know there has been a lot of talk about this car but no pictures previously... thanks to all the helpful advice I finally got my first camera, and thanks to some tech support from members of this group I think I finally figured out how to use it also... First off in this thread, I wanted to recognize someone... I want to recognize my father. the "project" below is largely the results of his efforts and hard work... Its been a ton of hard work and it wouldn't be possible without him... He doesn't hear it enough from me, but I really appreciate him and what he has done for me. Now for the pics... the first one is a PPI picture from the seller when I bought it around 3 years ago. We got it running and drove it for 3 months before starting the demolition almost 2 years ago: (drum roll please for my first ever pic) Attached image(s)
