Hey buddy! Glad to hear that your car is making noise!!
I got your message earlier tonight. Must have been working on something when you called. It's 11 PM and I just got in from the shop. Of course, I wasn't working on the RS lol Trying to get a set of gauges finished before I go out of town for a few days.

The work you've done on the car is fabulous! You'll have to bring it to Trans Am Nationals next year. I'll meet you there

Thanks Daniel. Keep up the great work on all of your new products.

Nice!

Thanks.

I think it's Harry working on his house.

Car is up and ruuning good now. Installed driveshaft and it moves both ways. These are all firsts for this car as it had no motor or tranny when I bought it. Now I just have to get the brakes working better and seal up a few exhaust leaks. I might get to drive it around the block yet this year.

Went from this,

To this. I don't have pictures of the front clip on yet.

Thanks, I will see if I can post a video of it starting up later this weekend. I'm like a little kid. Nothing worked on this car when I got it. So, even a light bulb coming on for the first time is exciting.

This is my first video post so I'm not sure how will it will work out. It was late in the evening and getting dark out. Theres still plenty to do but this was a huge step forward for me. Enjoy.

Your vid works Rob, although the audio wasn't very good through my cheap PC speakers. Prolly sounds real good when you're there.
Cool to see your car becoming whole again.
