Hey Larry,
WOW!! The project is looking incredible, hoping you don't have COVID and it's just causing supply issues, etc.

Re: Larry's 49 Chevy gets a 500 hp LS3
I don't have covid 19 thank god ---- this is held up because I need a few things done that will require being around people, which i'm not at all feeling safe to do at this time. I turned 74 in October and have self quarantine since the first of February, not much will happen until I get vaccinated. All that needs to happen is to get this weighed so QA1 will sell me the coil over shocks i need,the paint job needs a final color sand & buff and upholstery done.

Hi Larry, you are quite the talented artist when it comes to nearly scratch building a custom rod. all that work is beautiful. I know I could not do it, I do not have the patients to be that good with the body and interior details. You are one of the best I have seen. You will leave a lasting legacy with that car of yours. if it does not make the cover of the magazines when it is done, it should.
It would be interesting to know what your final weight of the car will be, particularly with regard to your hp. the power to weight ratio must be very high.

I fully agree with this. I thought the same thing when I saw your 4age swap. Such clean, detailed work. Amazing stuff, Larry.
