I was wondering how long it would take for someone to point that out! I got the idea when I was using an aircraft tool at work that is very similar. I remember from the first restoration that the biggest issue was once the car was up on jack...
Well, can’t say that I am not putting some work in. After this weekend I know it would be a while before I had a chance to touch the A87 again so went ahead and hammered out some tough work today. Need access to the entire frame to restore it...
I finally got over to disassemble the last remaining items.I couldn't work on the subframes or suspension pieces while the car was at paint, so that is what needs to be done before reassembly can happen.Untitled by bradydings, on FlickrI...
I had planned on waiting until the build was MUCH further than it was for really large purchases but I couldn’t help snag this from a local dsm guy. It was on the build plan the entire time and now it’s a reality. So happy about it and it comes...

It can honestly vary. When I was looking around for places in Cali I would just call the shop and ask for a quote. Once I got one kind of in the middle I would then look up their work and reviews and go from there. The place I ended up going with...
Looks pretty clean, all in all. Taking on that scope of project (engine in the trunk) would be too much commitment for me, but as others have said, looking forward to following your progress posts.
