how ya making out with this project? it's been a while since some good car porn.loving the cage work.

Hi Gary,

Check out Alans website if you already haven't, if not here it is...

Doesn't look like his site has been updated any since the pics above either.

Nope, nothing since October 2011 that I could find. I hope everything is Okey Dokey.

Hey Ken - good to hear from you.  Did you ever make it down to TX this year?

Hey Rob,
Not quite Texas. Georgia yes, last August.

Now.....where's that Alan?

There doesn't appear to have been much progress over the last couple of months, so there's nothing to say and nothing to show either.
 
I've been busy, what with work and the new rugrat so haven't been online that much. Busy to the point that the white 8 went out only twice last year. Once for inspection and once to go to a local show that my wife browbeat me into attending (it was a charity deal that I had no interest in - almost all import muscle).

If this one's not ready, the white one will get a run down to GA for the Mitty end of April, but I'm still ~hoping~ that things progress and I can go down and pick up and drag the blue one there instead.

Anyone here planning on attending out of interest?

so what rearend are you using in this beast?alot of it is custom made i see.gonna be a handful for sure.enjoy and keep the pics coming.

Gary, I think he is using a later GTO IRS Diff.

Save me typing.

Wow this car looks awesome, lite, strong, and a bunch of power. Somebody's going to be smiling when it hits the road.

Just a quick pic to show its not dead...

wow that looks really great.keep up the good work.

Alan,

It's an adrenalin rush that will be fun to tame! Very clean and sanitary!The wait is well worth it in the end....

Hmm. This got dragged kicking and screaming from the archives...

A 5 word progress report would run "still waiting on the painter".

And another 5 word update would be "it appears to be painted"
Hoping it'll be ready for the Mitty

Is that white pearl?  White's a good 'colour' if one intends to use the car, doesn't show the dirt.
Not so good on the engine, there I prefer a colour known as Olde Oil. lol

Ivor

Wedgewood blue.
More representative of colour is this.

Alan,
Thanks for the update and photos. The more the merrier.
Ken

Then I hope this makes you as merry as it has me.

YES! This is the stage that get's one very excited as it's no longer car parts but A CAR! Congrats!

Car Porn ALERT!!!

Very nice Alan.

Jim

And this is leaving the paint shop

So all the weight is on it now? The ride height seems pretty good.

I like the shaved look. Shame one needs door handles...
