mas28O Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 After 5 years Stans car is out of his garage. I went over to his house today to help him load his car on the trailer to bring it to my shop to finish the swap. Stan has spent countless hours on this project trying to make everything the way he wants it. He has alot more patience than I do, there is no way that I could wait this long. Take a look, I am sure he will post up some of his pictures later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelsonian Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Wow, that is a nice setup. I unfortunately am on the multi year build program as well. Is there a documented build sheet with parts/pics ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

240Z2NV Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I have not put too much effort into photo-documenting, and doing write-ups. Just not really my thing. It has been a LONG project ... survived near death personal injury, business failure, marriage failure, yada, yada, yada. Car sees light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. Thank God Mike is helping me button up all of the TECHNICAL aspects, for which I am the Geico Caveman [or is it Progressive?]. I saw so many deadline goals come & go; but, I just got enough resolve to say 'I'm going to finish it damnit'. Once all of the electrical is sorted, the final assembly will be a snap. All of the panels are ready to go, and the interior as well. For those who have not come across my previous posts here bear in mind, when Mike and I lifted this car up [bare handed] and set it on a flat bed trailer a handful of years ago, it was a SHELL. That is how it started ... no suspension, no interior [AT ALL], no glass, nada, zip, zilch. Just a sheet metal carcass. With that in mind, yes, the car has come a LONG way. First 'plan' was a nicely 'massaged' LT1/4L60E. Shortly after Mike was one of the first on the site to do the LS swap, I got 'infected' by the "well if I'm going to do ...., I might as well ...." bug ... MUCH worse than Swine Flu or Avian Flu. Body & paint was a huge uphill journey, as well ... and that was the phase that I most looked forward to ... ironic. Anyway, just wanted to check in, as I didn't believe that Mike really posted pics of my build here [without me knowing it ;~) ]. I will gladly answer questions that I am capable of ... but, Mike is THE resource on this ... I merely scratched my head, cursed, wasted money, and 'redid' phases to get it here. I don't see myself creating a Build Thread, as many of you so diligently do [and MUCH APPRECIATED, by the way]. That being said, if I can help in any way, I would be happy to since the site has helped me so much. It should not be long before Mike posts [leaks] pics of the streetable finished phase. Stay tuned ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
