Thank you very much. That's a heck of a compliment. I've never seen Scott's work in person, but I have seen a couple of his cars in magazines and I know he's very respected in the GTO world.

I'm more of a Trans Am guy so this is my first "ground up" GTO restoration. One thing that I like about these GTOs is the fact that you can restore the entire chassis and mechanical and be able to work on it right there in the frame. It makes it MUCH easier to get everything set up and bolted in before you set the body back on. When you're doing a T/A like this......everything is bolted directly to the body so things are a little more cramped to work on.

The only down side is that GTOs are quite a bit bigger than T/As.....so that means alot more surface area to work on.
