Damn! Two days of reading through (well skimming and looking at pics) and I'm finally caught up. You've done a hell of a lot of fab work, and nice work too. I'm in to see the end result. Hope you can get back to it soon.

I really like the idea of the "Tahoe" build. Do you know of any members that have a completed one or are you one of the first? I would love to see a completed one!

I agree. I'm ready to see some more work on this tahoe. You made it look so easy that I now keep an eye on Craigslist for an old Burb.

Hey guys! The Sunbeam is still in the body shop and I am in Israel (again)! Hopefully they make some decent progress on it while I'm gone... Hoping to wrap it up this summer and get back on the 'Hoe!

Sweet Build, that SunBeam is awesome as well. What did you use to cut the body panels?

Hello. Thank you. The rear sway bar was from an IROC Camaro. There are threads on this forum about Camaro rear sway bars.

Anything new or are we going to have to wait till you retire to get back to it. Just joking. But it truly is a great project. Hopefully you will get back at it.
