I did all the mechanical stuff personally. I built the engine, transmission, did the 5 speed swap, brakes and suspension, wheels, gauges, the stereo install, etc.... I'm not as good with a spray gun as I'm am with a wrench tho, so I got some help with the body and paint...

A big thanks to Gary Campbell for some excellent paint and body work, and Mom and Dad for the help and use of the facilities.
