I tried to get in touch with this guy a while back....after a half dozen un-answered voicemails and as many un-answered emails I gave up...just saying....
He has always returned calls promptly Doug, and told me he "doesn't internet" at all so I have no idea who you might have been emailing.
It's already been outgassed and the smalls that came with it are all blasted. He's bugging me to get it done -- inconveniently in the midst of my Really Busy Season << harumph!! >> -- so I'm sure it will be a semi gloss black soon enough.
@toolmanmike, Al told me I should make plans to attend Farmington and Indy. I didn't realize you were part of his crew :D ... what a small world we live in!
Here's a few more pics. He moved it into the basement garage today.
With the little S10 now added to the shop, it's kinda tight in there so I'll see about some GTX pics. It's still a roller (440 is built and on a stand) but it might get Hemi-fied now too. I'm too busy with my own work to keep up with his ever-changing plans. Lol
