    Man! I got tired just watching the video! That job is not for the meek but that's a hell of a result! I love hearing that LS motor.

    Truth to be told I look at it now and can't believe I did all that either! What's really weird is after 8 months of spending every spare minute in the garage it was unsettling to have a free night and I missed being out there. The good news is it’s back in for a cam and radiator swap and when that is done it’s a full paint job. One of these days I need to put real brakes in it too....

    Thanks for the video. It brought a smile to my face and a lot of old memories. One last thing to mention, it seems like the car never really gets done.
