Okay. I finally have time to bring you up to date. Next was the sound matting put in along with AC. Also a lot of wiring. Dash installed. Steering column. Roll cage. Check out the welds. Another reason for me not doing it. I could practice for years and not make jewelry like this.

Today I got the following pics. It’s really coming together nice. Most of my bright work is my original stuff just cleaned up by Nick. Amazing results.

Can't wait to see it in April. No pressure Nick.

LOL. That’s funny cause I was teasing him about I need to get it registered for SC. Just too many variables still with the interior shop and carpet etc. but if it makes it there it makes it. Otherwise I’ll just have my red one with me

Got a nice gift from Nick today. A video of my engine running. But I’ll be damned if I know how to load it so you all can see it. I had to run down a used set of steel door panels yesterday. No use to buy new since they’ll be covered. If anyone knows how to load a video let me know or I’ll text it to you and you could load it for me

On your phone I assume? Send it to your laptop, save to desktop and load...

OR there's always upload to u tube from your phone or computer

Ok thanks. But since I’m a dinosaur and never use any computer other than my phone I found an easier way. I called my daughter and said “ hey. If I send you a video can you upload it to YouTube and send me the link?” She put it on her channel so if you wanna hear some good bagpiping check out her other videos.

Great build for sure! Im sure that you can't wait to get it back from Nick! Great color for sure. That has become a really popular color with the Broncos! Hopefully you make it to Super Celebration! ;D

Getting closer. Just gonna run out of time before SC. A lot of little things to do yet. Nick said the interior guy is gonna take it in during the week of SC.

Also. Look what I found today while searching for parts to take to SC. Real Ford stuff that I bought back in the 80’s
