Fireworks time!!
« on: August 03, 2015, 08:47:34 PM »
For those of you that have put up with me during my Pinto build, be comforted that it's 98% done. I started this pro street project 4 1/2 years ago, with a slow but steady push, the time has come to go from building to enjoying. I drove it home for the first time Sunday, and was that a treat. Now I hope to be able to catch up you fine folks at some of the meets and put a '' glad to meet you hand shake to the names''. Thanks to all those who encouraged me along the way,you may not have known you were doing that but you kind words of ''looks great''  ''nice work'' had a profound impact on me threw the YEARS of this build.If any one should be intrested my photo gallery has a few build pictures. Thanks again and Gods blessings on you all.

Wow Bud!!!! 

WOW!!!

From what my wife and kids saw last summer at your shop to this incredible finished wagon... And remembering all the detail and workmanship I saw when you had it on the rotisserie, I can only imagine how fantastic it turned out...

WOW... WOW!!!

Ausgeschnicht!

PS... I just sat here trying to convince my son that this was the same car we saw...

Scott I can understand your son having a tough time believing, it was quite different at that time. I'm very pleased with how it has turned out. Reeves1 I need to get my 4 bar set and then I'll work on getting a video at the track. From the few miles I've driven it,a beasted is a good way to describe it!!
