Dammit.... I was hoping you would quit so I could as well. But NOOOOO.... you had to go and up the ante with a full wire tuck as well... way to be THAT GUY

Guess I will have to be running again by ZdayZ so we can meet up - Green Goblin vs Spiderman.

Awesome progress and patience. Now I have to go back and read the first 24 pages.

I just read his whole other thread.... I thought I was a whacko, he's took it to a level that makes me look normal in comparison. I had no idea we were so much alike in our disease

Thanks for the compliments guys, its been almost 1 year since I started the full build of the car. Without some of the people here pushing there cars to the next level it would have never inspired me to build mine. Chris you are one of those people with all the crap you have been through and you just keep chugging along, I wish I was closer I would love to help you do what ever you wanted to you car.

Also Vas, Rich is correct that is not my Z.

the wire tuck is super easy. his bay looks so clean because he filled/welded all the holes. That and sanding it all smooth is the time consuming part. Thats where I drew the line.

I agree the wire tuck is not to bad, but I also took all the factory loom off and sleeved and heat shrink every wire. The welding was easy also it was the smoothing all the seams that took forever, my fingers hurt thinking about it lol.
