My new friend and body guy Nick is on it 4 1/2 weeks and the car is just about ready for paint. I couldn't be happier. It should be completely done in 7-9 days. I'm bringing the chasis down next weekend and he'll line it up and "GET ER DONE". Everything else is pretty much done and waiting to go. I'm just looking for stupid/slip my mind s%%t like motor mounts. I hope to be driving this car by Labor Day which will be some sort of record for me!!!;) P.S. Nick's the guy in the first frame, looking tired!!!:yes:

Man, you're working your butt off to have that done by Labor day. Do you work a real job, too?? :D

Yeah Dave, I have a real job too. I'm usually up at 5", out the door by 6:30, and done by 3:00. Then it's on to the sand blaster, body shop, garage and whatever else I have to do on my list. And I do live by that damn list or it will never get done!!! Being single with no kids affords me that opportunity, I answer to no one and that makes a big difference. My time is just that, my time and this car will be done!!!!!!:thumbsup:

I see what the deal is now, I remember those days when I was single and no other responsibilities as well.... :(
