Amazing engine! This thing is going to be a blast to drive. Very cool for sure.

I snuck a few more pics on the way to work a couple days ago. Borrowed my wifes camera, so that's why the lighting sucks! They will be finishing up a couple parts and color sand/buff and should be done next week.

Man, the paint scheme and colors are really great Brent!!!! Really enjoying watching the car come together!!!

Brent it's been 4 weeks how is the GT standing now . The color pops for sure .

She made it home today....Rich delivered it for me and she's looking purty!

Engine back in and getting things sorted. Should be on the road by the end of the month...lots of work left though!!!

PROGRESS!!! Well after a major trailer to lift accident that was my damned fault...I'm an idiot...lets leave it at that. Now I don't have to worry about the first chip in the paint....or the second...or the third...or....

Still a lot of odds and ends to complete though...

Here's a little HD video of the award thingy.

Awesome Brett, beautiful job. The MKIV is my all time favorite race car.

Here is one of my desKtop pics...

Mike/Dave/REGS/Steve, thanks! It's been a fun project. Still a lot of little things to finish up, but at least the pressure is off to get it on the road.

You're evil, Bill! Actually, this is one thing I didn't take pictures of. I was so out of it at the time. I was stupid and drove the car off of a trailer and onto my lift in the garage that was at the same level as the trailer (did this because the ramps for the trailer were too steep for the GT)....well, I sorta popped the clutch a bit (at the time I didn't have the right master cylinder, so it was really stiff), and it happened at the wrong time as my rear tires were on the ramps from the trailer....The ramps from the trailer shot back in and the ass end of the GT fell onto the back end of the trailer. The GT was resting on the chassis on te end of my lift....UGLY! My neighbor watched the whole thing, which was just wonderful that I couldn't hide my stupidity even from them. There you have it. << Insert your own mental pictures here >>
