Big fan of the Gemini blue, looking forward to the finished product.

I'm thinking of grabbing a 964 to mod just for fun and because I love the body on the 964. Although I guess yours won't look like a 964 soon.

It is almost 4am Friday night - actually Saturday morning -- here at the shop working on the car. I have been here since late afternoon. Had as many as 7 guys cranking away until about 2am. Down to just 3 + almost useless me. No idea how to upload pics from the shop here but it is almost done. Engine is about to go in...

Goal is 8am to load in trailer.

What a great story this has been. Talk about a labor of love. You are a good son. Can't wait to see the final results, and of course hear about your Dad's reaction.
