Thanks for all the compliments and wishes guys..
And that Z06 from Franklin's Bee is very nice... like the spider wheels and color.

The rebuild has some drama attached.. So Andrew's Cadillac is the only place that will willingly work on it... Which already proposed a problem as there is a trust issue with their business.. 2 "bent" steering gears later and they have to order another.. Hard to believe, then he shoots that there are only 3 floating in the US right now... more bull.. then the guy denied when I asked to see her in the shop... a little sketchy there. Anyway he said tomorrow afternoon is the deadline that I should pick Thor up.. I'm hoping hard. I will definitely post some pictures and announce the recovery ASAP

Okay.. They were missing a SINGLE bumper clip for attaching... so they were requested to wash clay-bar and wax... and now it's raining :(.. anyway: I'm picking her up in 2-3 hours!

Wow.. It has been a while! I've been way too busy with the ARCA trips, tests, and everything else with the Win-Tron #32. I'll be posting a lot of that stuff on Youtube pretty soon.. which will have commercials [I'm lame.. and broke (just on another level as bankruptcy)] I'll link my channel when the first videos appear.

I'm adding in the few things I've done to "Thor" over the past few months today! Thanks again for all the feedback and views
From a MUCH needed tire change, on the second and third picture you can see the ripping rubber.
This makes the tread look about an inch and a half deeper, rubbing over them, tread was hardly noticeable (obvious exaggeration)



Funny how my fronts are still about perfect tread... wonder how things like that happen
