timbuks second invader


My god Tim you work fast. In only 3 hrs you stripped the car did rust repair in the floor pans, rebuilt the trunk and surrounding. All I got done was clean the floor in my trailer.

Wow, looking good there Tim. I love your creativity to make it all work. Probably driving you crazy as it waits for you and your body says not quite yet.

Tim, i am with Dave on the front straight axle set up. That would look real tough on your car. Amazing good work and continued good luck on the project. Cheers. George
