some of you guys might remember most of my project from the ntba.i figure while i have a little time i would give a little recap.i started with a body ,frame,front axle kit,a set of rear coil overs all purchased from Hermans fast glass in Tn.i also had a firebird parts donor for engine trans and rear.well i have been working on it for about a year and 6 months.the chassis is complete painted and ready to go.pics are available in the album section dan,s 23 t i think.lolthe body i have painted red and wasn,t happy with it so it is now getting a thourough sanding and a repaint and color change i have decided to go same color as the chassis.therefore my project has just gained a name titanium T lol.hopefully in the next couple of days i will have the paint finished and the body and chassis married for the last time.just thaught i would share some of my project with you all.i dont get alot of time to post on here but i will as often as i can.and hope to update my photo album as soon as i get some progress on the paint done.thanks Dan.

Thanks for the recap and the update. Sounds like it's going to be a great build and I look forward to pics.
well i am getting close to firing the engine and maybe a trip around the block.i still lack a couple parts to get this done.1 a set of 3-1/2" mufflers and turn outs.and some 14 gauge wire in multiple colors.if any one has either of these and would part with them pretty cheap or wants to trade on something i have please let me know.i have an extra gas tank that would not fit in the custom wood pick up box i made.it is a good aluminum tank with the holes for sending unit and a pick up with screen already installed.if interested pm for exact dimensions.i will take 75.00 plus shipping for it or trade on the mufflers needed above. thanks Dan
yea seems like everything takes longer than expected.and when you take your time on one thing and it turns out pretty good you have to take twice as much time on the next to make it compare to the first lol.Hotrod46 said:Tell me about it! I'm fast coming up on 2 years on mine. Thought I would knock it out in a few months!:lol:
Good looking car BTW.
