I don't throw compliments around loosely... but I have to say AWESOME JOB.  I can't wait to see it once painted. I am so jealous - I need to get me a '69 project car in bad enough shape so that I can have all the fun your having.  There is something to be said for basically starting from scratch, where you can more easily make it anything you want it to be.  Two thumbs up!

The closest (not even close) I ever came to something like that was when my younger son and I built a hydroplane of plywood and fiberglas, so I can appreciate the hours of work to get as far as you have.
Awesome job!!!

Vette(s): 1972 coupe/350 cid/mild cam/4 spd/20 ft. paint (looks perfect from 20 ft.), but it sure runs nice.

First-rate work....my "supervisor" and I don't see eye-to-eye when it comes to Vettes.

Great Job 

I like what you did to the spoiler. It gives it a little more flare.

Can't wait to see the final paint job.

Now that was a lot of work. You will have something to be really proud of when you get it finished. Should make driving it all that much more of a reward. Congrats on a job well done.
