Tom, it's a work of art...I truly mean that, it is gorgeous. Hopefully you'll make it to the American Muscle show this year so I can check it out!
almost looks fake. like its cg or a toy or something. unreal... there is no way I could ever pull off something that bad ass.
another awesome car clark
Thanks guys!
Yeah, I would like to make that this year. Thats the goal. See how it goes. Be nice if the weather would play nice too.

Absolutely amazing! :bowdown:
Amazing build. Ive been following it for years, Nice work!
Absolutely ridiculous.
Very rarely am I ever stunned by the overwhelming beauty of a car but this car is unreal. I truely can't wait to see the finished product.
This! Some of those shots just look too perfect to be real - awesome build :beer:
Thanks guys. I'll keep the pics coming as I get them.
Okay, quick update for everyone.
Luckily I found out the stock 03-04 driveshaft will work in my car, so I didn't need to build a custom one. Saved some money there.
Did alittle more insulating before carpet.
Carpet went down. Gotta give a shout out to LateModel Resto on the carpet. I have had other carpets in this car, this is by far the best. And yes it is ACC. Thats what I used in my trucking days and should have never let some of these guys steer me wrong. Finally love the carpet in this car.
Started mocking up the AC under the dash
Mockup of the console. Yes that is a mini ipad flush mounted with one touch quick release. Will be used for tunes and nav.
Started work on the custom plenum. More to come on this.
Got the hood back from my painter. Underside is nicer than the top side. Yes the cowl scoop is going back on.
Fenders going on.
Nose is back on.
Master cylinder mocked up.
Not using hose clamps, instead the Gates Thermoplastic clamps.
Tanks mounted.
Started plumbing the lines.

Looks great!
You really have a work of art on you hands here. Your attention to detail and workmanship is awe inspiring.
Like everyone has mentioned, work is just flawless. I can only hope to do the same quality of work one day.
On a side note, with the thermoplastic clamps, what do you do if you ever have to remove stuff or do work? Do you simply just cut them and pull them off and replace them with a new thermoplastic clamp or what?
