i havent been to a meet in awhile. Used to go back in the late 90's until about 2007. I am sure I will show up to a few once the car is done.

Sorry...a lot has gone on to prolong this build. However the good news is it's almost done
Car is at the body shop now, re-painted the bumpers, shaved the amber side markers and painted all the trim satin black!
I will have pictures this weekend and hopefully this month all the little button up stuff will get completed.
went to KAAZ usa today to visit Ray and pick up my Super-Q LSD
