Holy Smokes John... That looks so Awesome!!! Very Impressive work. I am loving this. You sure have crushed this Update out of the Park. :wub:. I can't wait to see when you get some paint on the body now. This thing looks so good Brother!!!

All of the plumbing and wiring is very convincing. I picked up some of those angled plug wire boots from RB Motion a few weeks ago in anticipation for a current build and I can't wait to use 'em after looking at these results.

Where'd you get the gauges at and how'd you get them to look like that?

Killer work John... this is turning out so awesome. That interior is off the charts for sure and the detail with the gas tank area is very nice. I cant wait to see that body in paint as well as see this bad boy in person :D.

Very enjoyable and inspiring to watch, fantastic work as usual. I admire all the engineering and thought you clearly have put into this. 

You have the engineering part of my mind reeling on how the master brake cylinder is going to be actuated. I am very intrigued after studying your photos and noticing that little port  in the frame in relation to where the foot pedal will be once the body is on the frame.  I can only imagine what you have come up with. Great stuff John.
