Big thanks to the "seasoned owners"
I thought now is an appropriate time to thank some of those that helped me get to this point , which I think is a major stage of the whole build. All of these people have been a great help. So many people would probably never attempt to build one if it weren't for there endless supply of knowledge.
Paul ( EdwardB): His meticulous build threads were a huge help, they were like his own version of a build manual. Many of his methods were incorporated into my build and he gave me plenty of advice.
Jeff Kleiner: Well what can I say, he has methods named after him. His knowledge of the entire car , mechanically and body and paint is unbelievable. Lots of advice also.
Dave (Papa) : Also a great build thread . Really good on the electronics side. He was able to give me advice on the Holley Sniper, made it really simple to understand. I was really happy that I was able to start mine first time with no issues from the Sniper.
Travis(Fman) : what a beautiful car he built. I took some ideas from his build, also we both have 427's so that was also a big help having someone to bounce ideas off.
Mike Bray : Another build with some really awesome customizations. He helped me with some engine issues also.
Rich : thanks for all your help also. I like his direct approach to things. Lots of knowledge on these cars.
Still have lots to do but I feel some of the most challenging things are done , I am really enjoying the whole process. I have been on a certain thought process of getting the car ready for first start. Now that I have done that I kinda have to go back to square one and finish more sheet metal (as I didn't want to cover too much up like the trunk area, until I knew things were ok). Still very focused on completing this just need to regather my thoughts on WHAT NOW.
