You are all so very kind. it is my pleasure to be here with all of you sharing what we all love . If this build has inspired in ANY way then it has served its purpose. I will be back ina few days with the completed powertrain photos. Next up will be the suspension or the tub......haven't figured out which one yet because I am looking forward to both of them a lot.
