Thanks,

Got to work on the car today. Added some more dyno glass. Worked on fitting the piece behind the T-Tops and the fast back vent pieces.

It was a long day of sanding more.





I like the way the back looks now. Gianina is turning away from me painting the car black. We talked today about Silver with black and gray snake skin stripes. I think she really liked the Silver chop so this one might end up Silver also.

Now I see how you did the chop...

This was such a nice looking car. I was looking back and thinking how nice it would have been just to add the LS4 and keep the car like you picked it up . Do you still have the wheels? I would like to have a white formula with those wheels. I would like to build the car you started with.

It was very clean and had a very rare blue interior. The more I look at it you are problllllyyyy right. I just get carried away a lot. The wheels are on Becca's car. Most body parts were sold. They are Enkei wheels you might be able to still buy them but not sure.

I need to sell the old 85 and find a white formala without the very rare blue interior.

Just found this picture of the 89 Prototype. Check out the sail panels on it...

Does anyone actually own one of the 90 prototypes?

Would love to purchase if it ever goes on the market!

GM owns one! As far as I know that's the last surviving one.

It is close to the same idea.

I get to pick up the engine harness tomorrow. Bad news is the yard gave me a Cadillac Northstar ECM (same part number but different program) back when so I had to get another ECM. I guess I will ebay the Northstar one to try to recoup that. Looks like I will get away from the body and work on getting the fuel lines and exhaust hooked up. I will get it running next before I get back to the bodywork. I needed a break from sanding anyway. I hope old Frankenstein comes to life soon.
