Does it take that long to do a proper body job from start to finish or are they just taking their time with it? Just seems to be a very long process. Its looking great though Ian!

You are not going to spend all this time and money on a car that looks great and drives like stock, are you? Hell no. You want to turn the key and make heads turn. Then you want to be able to smoke the tires and lay down rubber at break neck speed. Beauty and the Breast, man. Its the best of both worlds.
Now when it comes to passing emissions, can't it be re-tuned (temporarily) into wimpy lean mode? Or just pay a penalty when it fails and move one. Or get the car registered to a postal code that doesn't check emissions?
You don't want stock. That won't be fun to drive.

It looks great! I'd wait for more snow to melt and the salt to get washed off the roads.

Car now is at home. Spend 5 hours cleaning the interior and probable have another few more...If I would have know I would have removed more of the interior. LOL
The Paint is absolutely amazing. I'm seriously considering never letting it see the rain or dirt lol. Gonna be a long road assembling it.
Pictures to follow...
