Joker Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Your in progress work is in my eye the best part of the build. Lots of detail work that will be hidden with body panels and paint. Thanks John for including the body work stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cranky Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Oh wow, John, that's looking great. I'm thinking of building up one of these. I have one a friend sent me and I think I might join in on building one. I am going to go box stock though. This is another fun build and thread and I will be watching.

Alyn Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Nice to see one of these Big T's being built at such a high level. Fantastic and very instructional work as always, John, but a huge pat on the back for taking on this project in the first place. Who else could accomplish such excellent work at this pace.
