I would like to say yes, but I am not sure if it will happen. The garage where I store and work on my car is literally crumbling. (Full of termites) Pretty soon I am going to stick the car in storage and prepare to empty and demo the garage. Going steel building to replace it, pretty much kicks the ... |

I took advantage of the weather and the day off. Been block sanding all of the pieces, gave them two more coats today. And gave the main body its first two coats. I'll keep at it until the weather shuts me down. http://i.imgur.com/nD4X3Mc.jpg http://i.imgur.com/CCVj0Ey... |

Got some 2k primer applied to the pieces this past Wednesday.
Still some block sanding to finish on the roof. I will be out there sanding on Christmas day. As long as the weather holds, I'll keep pushing to get it ready for paint. |

Well... no one bought it. Tons of "wishbones." I took it off of the market a few months ago. Been welding and patching. Going to do a pro touring style build and sell it. Already have most of the drivetrain... rebuilt 03 LQ4 6 liter with cam & valvetrain upgrades, 86k mile 05 4L80E and... |

I live on 1/4 acre, so things are cramped. Plan is to flip it for a profit. But, if I start working on it and no one buys it... guess I will keep it. :shrug It's a 307/PG car, so it's a toss up between keeping the PG and tossing in a low mile 454 I have - dressed as a 350 HP L34 396.
