Stopped in to meet Bert and check out this "Mutant" today.

I'm impressed! Really going to be a nice car! Innovative thinking to the max.
Thanks for allowing my grandson's and I the opportunity Bert. Really did appreciate it. Looking forward to come back to see you & it again.

Check out Bert's thinking.......this boy has something on his shoulders!

Pic 1, I love the stance!

Pic 2, Dash fits just right.

Pic 3, Rear wheels too far back, cut out a 2" piece. Next.

Pic 4, Hinges hit the shock tower, NO problem.

Pic 5, You should hear it run! Whoo......

Nice project. I've only seen one car this was done to before. I love the newer GTOs as far as ride and comfort, but that body is lacking lol. Should be real nice to drive when it's done

Amazing transformation.

Just 5 months to do it all!

Bert, you must not sleep very much.

Congrats, Bart
