Its been almost 4 months of non-stop work. Taking 1 or 2 nites off a week. Between me and and my friend Jeff Little there somewhere in the neighbor hood of 500 hours. Not including all my other friends that have came and pitched in a decent amount also. As far as the tin work goes all we have left is the rear firewall left. And then everything will have to be removed again because all the tin work is going to be powder coated.

Other things that still need done are Brake lines, fuel lines, shifter mount, painting the rest of the cage, wiring, door panels, gas pedal and reassembly of the whole car. We are no where near being done.

Been Waiting around for the power coated tin work to come back. So we have been cleaning up parts and doing other odds and ends, Like making the shifter bracket , cleaning the engine up and started on the wiring panel.

I sent to dash out to have some things done to it and as you can see it turned out just awesome. I want to thank Tyler for doing such a great job. If your looking for any kinda work like this give him a call (724-747-6514) or look at [http://www.myspace.com/elliott4379](http://www.myspace.com/elliott4379)
