My 70 Roadrunner Viper build

[Brandy]

I had a chance to buy a local garage back in 2012 for a song but at my age and place in life, about to retire from the military, I just didn't want the hassles. Would have been nice to have though.

Keep it up! Looks great. Mine is coming along slower than planned . But your thread is inspirational.

Thank you , I am kind of in a waiting game at the moment with the build. It is almost ready for tear down and paint but several things are slowing the process down. The 1st is the piggybank is a little empty at the moment, the 2nd is work has been so busy I haven't had the spare time to get stuck into it and the 3rd is we are in the process of selling and buying a new house. But the positive is the potential new house has a bigger garage than the house, suits me just fine haha.
Good progress on your build too.

Wow, you would almost be a frequent flyer in the operating theatre haha, surgery is never fun, but I have to say my shoulder feels so much better since the operation. I hope you recover fast !
Thank you so much for the gift, it is an amazing surprise and I am truly humbled by your generosity.

I haven't had much time on the build lately as we have been busy organizing the sale of our house and the purchase of somewhere new. I'm quite excited as the sheds have a larger footprint than the house. I am already looking for a hoist / lift to install haha.

I have been working on the last of the electrics and will then be ready to start final gapping of panels before getting it into color.
I cannot wait until I can start final assembly.
