Well it runs great, but there are quite a few loose ends to tie up.
Working on it a little each night and on the weekends.
Nobody wants to see it on the road worse than me, I hoping to have it at least street legal by the end of April.

Shooting for April 27 Queens English in Woodley Park?  That event had inspired several of my projects to completion, or at least got them on trailers. :)

Hope to see you there.

I would think many loose ends are to be expected with such a major project.  Hell, I've got many loose ends and all I did was pull my car out of storage.

That's great John!!! Please post a video (with sound!) when it's on the road!!

I know it's been a long development and I also know it's a huge honor to have Jay and Foose's crew take care of the design, etc.! It just doesn't get any better than that! I can't wait to hear it's on the road!  :beerchug:

Did they really deliver a half ready (and half construction area) car and you had to finish the job on your own? And that more than one year after the show with the "ready" car was broadcasted?

If yes, shame on Overhaulin' and shame on Foose :deadhorse:

But you car is a stunner now and completely unique. :pirate:
