Duuuuude... You're making all the rest of us look like total slackers.... you've built more cars this year than the total I've ever OWNED!!!

I can see this one finished up now, all polished up suspension, mirror-black painted body with classic hot rod flames... this will be a show-stopper!

As everyone else has said, you're amazing. Beautiful work.

Hi Frank, looking good! Quick question, where do you get the rod-ends from? Also the tie-rods for your other project, is it something I can purchase in the US? Thanks.
