That's going to be a sweet build!

Are you guys serving over there or are you working for contractors?

Well i just got back home, work will start on the car sometime soon. Motorswap was postponed due to me having the keys in NY but hopefully this coming week it will happen.

Started opening boxes of parts and dumping peanuts everywhere, felt great since i missed Christmas.
here's some pics of some of the parts i got, i'll take some of the seats and wheels/tires tomorrow
