Well i work on it from 9am-1230pm. And then I work on it on weekends.

But from heat, to complications i run into, it slows me down.

and i auctally got hurt tonight at school, so im limited on my fingers

I am going to pretty much haul butt on it this weekend so i can drive it to school hopefully monday

keep in mind, i am doing this by myself, with no air tools, no lift, and its about 110 everyday when im out there and im on blacktop.

I have felt this pain you speak of...

But when it's all said and done, the amount of hardship you put into whatever the project is, pays off in the end when people compliment your work and relish in your conversation about the trials and tribulations you have indured to create such a work of art.

Yeah I just hope I get compliments. Its been a VERY rough 2 weeks. now on day 16 of the build. Taking way longer than I expected. Doesnt help now that I have a broken left middle finger either....*sigh*

I am aiming to be driving it to school monday to work on my exhaust. So with that said, adios everyone, I got a lot of work to do

Love checking this thread for updates! 2 of my best friends graduated from UTI, one from Ford F.A.C.T. and the other from the Mercedes-Benz program and they loved it. Keep up the good work bro!

Have you tried shutting the hood on it, from this angle it seems rather high up.

I'm predicting a burnt hood shroud. Just doing some wondering for you Zach..

Ziptie was merely for TEST FITTING

THE ARTIST TAKES HIS TIME WHEN MAKING A MASTERPIECE

Thank you all for the comments

It is taking forever because of NUMEROUS reasons.

A. I got to School 2-815pm M-F
B. Its about 110+ when Im outside working on it
C. I got no lift
D. I have no air tools

Answer for ya

I am pulling an all nighter Friday night after school and working throughout the day saturday/sunday. I will not stop this weekend for anything to get this done for MEMORIAL DAY!

See ya later guys
