The longer it takes for you to get your car back, the more my curiosity grows. What the hell are you doing to it?

I have not been able to drive my car in just over 2 years. The closest I got was having people push it while I steer.

I feel your pain man. The first 6 months was another shop's fault but the last 18 months has been heartache for me.

Good luck. Hope one of us gets to go for a ride some day soon.

There where a few family based issues that had arisen throughout this whole process that put things on the back burner for a while.

That is the cause of my delays.

Now that they have all been resolved we have been making great forward movement and after these last few bumps are smoothed out, we will be listening to her sing.

I appreciate the comments and def look forward to having her back shortly.

Good luck on your project as well, she is shaping up nicely.

It will be home before we hit the 2 year marker. Right now we are at 17 months.

Once the last couple parts roll in there will be a slew of final assembly pictures and video.

I am told the intake plumbing will leave the fabricator tomorrow, so it should be in NorCal by the end of the week.

Bro- I would let them have it for another month for break in and tuning. Mind as well make it 18 months-has a nice ring to it, I mean they've had this long already, no.?.

Bill will not release the car until he feels she is ready. So I am not worried in that regard.

Just waiting on the final pieces from Vorsteiner to show up. The last hurdle in this whole process.

Carmen, they didn't mount it directly to the bumper did they? Cause if you ever want to pop it off for any reason then you will have to disconnect the lines and such. I hope they just laid it in there to show the fitment and clearance. I'm sure they wouldn't do something like that. Looks good though,
