I spent countless hours digging through junkyards looking for miscellaneous parts needed to complete the project as as a body-in-white car comes with absolutely nothing. All of the fabrication was done by myself, Ken Miele and others and the paint was done by a friend. This car absolutely does not have the best-of-everything as you had said and we have been tuning on it ever since trying to make it faster. For the first 2 years we campaigned a factory coyote engine and struggled...and are still struggling to get a handle on it. The only parts that are "factory" is the body-in-white and the original engine.
Well then kid, I stand corrected! And I would consider it a real hot rod. Good job!
