It's been in a holding pattern as I do not have the time after work to get anything done on it.

The want is there, trust me on that.

Sorry for the lack of updates, work owns me. Every time I want to work on it, I can't. It's rather frustrating when the biggest project you have is just within arms reach.

I just have been collecting odds and ends now, like various metal parts and body additions.

It's cool, It became a nightmare working there, my PTSD was pinging off the chart on a regular basis. I have moved the car to a 10x30 storage unit, and hoping to dissemble it an make a rotisserie to weld up the bottom, but IDK at this point.

Well, I got some good news, I now have a shop, it's 30x35. It has power outlets, 120v and 240v. And It can hold all of my cars, woohoo!!!

I also picked up an EVO VIII intercooler, some piping, and a few grommets. I am also about to order a mig welder that can do aluminum too.

I'll post some pics soon, well right after I take them, lol.
