Progress has been slow but I plan to get down there and kick Mike in his ass to finish this thing up sometime this year. I'll take pictures and post anything he will let me when I'm down there.

Did you get down there? I was hoping to see if there has been any progress. I have not seen anything updated on his website in a long time. I guess I will have to come up there and kick both of you in the ass.

I could always use one! I saw him Last weekend at our club meeting and told him I'm just going to knock on his door one Friday and tell him he better be ready to work in the morning. lol

What is really sad is that ratings seem to be so important to some. All the 49, 000 visitors had to have come away with something good out of this. I was a late comer to this thread and I really got turned off by all the bad mouths that were on here earlier. Even Archie was a very negative , opinionated, ass. The really sad part is all the many others of us here who have watched this build in awe and benefited so much are now left behind wondering and wishing we could see the finished product.

I would hope that Mr. Spider would consider all the real fans he had here and finish his post. Screw the ratings dude. Most of us here love where you were headed and wished we could've done the same. I myself would finish it for all the people who were hooked on this build and not listen or care about any of the negative crap that went on here. Spider do it for us and yourself. That should be reward enough.

I will try to get some work done on the back bumper today.



I just started looking at this thread for the first time today, so i have a lot of catching up to do, but this really caught my eye. I really love your low tech, but truly ingenious way of mirroring the fender on both sides!

It just goes to show that you don't need all the hi tech cad software and CNC machinery to get a truly amazing product! It just takes a little brainpower, that's all!

I just spoke to Mike over the weekend. He got the exhaust system finished up. He has family in town so not sure when he will want me to come help out. The car cranks and runs but still needs the body work, interior and some wiring for gauges and accessories finished up. Archie and him have been butting heads for years. I don't think he is going to come back to the forum because it's a lot easier to work when you're not having to stop every few minutes to document how you have done something. Plus it's a lot less stressful without dealing with the B.S. from some people here.

Front end Mirrors


Fuel Door. He had to heat the factory door and mold it to fit the curve.
