Your progress is awesome! I enjoy watching this car come back together.

Well, finally got the PhaseII LT5 installed today. The trans will be installed tomorrow. Pics to follow.

The door handles and door glass are now in. We installed the hood and adjusted the front bumper today. Now, onto the sanding and buffing tomorrow. The headlights will go in tomorrow, also. I need to get this thing home and detalied before next Wednesday.

Pretty dusty but I just had to take some pics with the hood installed. I worked pretty hard to get the panel fitment right.

Nice work Brett! The finish on that car is sweet and it's not actually finished.... it's going to be one sharp looking ZR-1.

I really can't wait to see it at the NCM!

Tom

I just gotta say that you have some mad skills!

So have you had any inquiries about buying it?

Finally got it home from being sanded and buffed. Emblems, headlights and windshield banner now in place. Only have to install the B pillar weatherstrip and it's ready for Bowling Green!:woohoo::woohoo:

Brett , way to be man! That car came out fantastic! I'll bet your chest was really puffed out now!

Unless some one see the 'before' picts, they will have no clue as to what this road looked like when you started down it. Kudos man for a job well dunn!
