As some of you know. I put the car up forsale for a while.. Not sure why... it was dumb to say the least. I got a couple goood offers on it. The best was $35k. I just couldn't do it.
I've always stated that I was going to store the car for 10-20 years when it hit around 50k miles. Not sure if I am going to go this route or not.. but I for damn sure am keeping the car and working my way towards finishing it...Slowly but surely..
So here is the break down of things that are going to happen this year. I am waiting on a few parts and when they arrive.. tear down will begin.
