    I've been watching this thread from a far as it's a whole lot different than anything I've ever done and to be honest, a bit intimidating as there's a lot of work going on here!

    I must complement you on your creativity, initiative and the enthusiasm with which you have embraced this project. You started with a somewhat "non-traditional" vehicle and have taken a fantastic approach in terms of wanting to learn and being completely transparent in the manner in which you've progressed. We all make mistakes in our builds (I know I've made more than my share) but you have really stuck with this project and I'm thinking you'll have this beast on the road and looking real good before too long!

    Your willingness to tackle all aspects of the build and try different things is commendable - it's what makes hot rodding a fun past time! I'm looking forward to continuing to watch your progress and see the finished product!

    Regards,
    Glenn

    Thanks for your kind words, it really means a lot to me. I don't see any reason to hide my mistakes, I have no reputation to live up to; I may as well fess up and learn what I can from them.

    Thanks again.
