Thanks for the update John! I can't wait to see it fly. You did a really good job photo documenting again. I didn't know your wife was a wrench too - that is very cool

Thanks, I can't wait either! Yes she enjoys working on it as much as I do. She is learning and really catching on quick. With her wanting to help with this project has really made it a lot more fun!

It's nice even having someone to help with the pictures. I seldom document what I'm doing (like you do) only because my hands are too dirty to handle the camera. She'll enjoy the car more when its a genuine sense of pride

I always try and document what I do as it makes good memories to look back on yes I'm sure the pride of knowing her hands were in the build will make it that much more special!

Looking very awesome so far John! And I agree, that's cool the Mrs. is getting in on this. By chance are you both planning to come out to the GM Nationals again? Possibly you in the Monte group and her with the Caddies?

What did you do, win a lottery, rob and armored car?

You did not even stop to take a breath, appears you understood where you wanted to go with this build and are going to bang it all out a once, not piece meal it together.

What can one say but the obvious... "JEALOUS". Your CVS-T build looks to be top notch, it just going to have to be some silly sick high HP build. VERY NICE John!!!

Your capturing of the key part removal and install with photos is so valuable to have archived. Are you a member of a Cadillac forum you share this with?

Your the man, and you wife is into this up to her elbows too, now that's hardcore, makes you proud of her, and helpful having that second set of hands around too. Were all proud of you...
