Another milestone this week, the car is back on its feet again and under its own power. The drive train, brakes and suspension are pretty much complete. Next it's back to the body work.

I think this weekend I'll move some of the boxes stacked on my RR off of the trunk and over to the other side of the garage... :lol:

Hopefully this spring, I can start refurbishing my garage and then when AMD releases their quarter panels, I can start working on my car... :cry:
