Don(CUDAGUY) should tell everyone what Big Daddy said to him and his response. It was too awesome.

Come on Tony, you got to tell us... It will take Don months just to read the Cuda Guy thread.

I just can't. If Don doesn't repond by tomorrow afternoon I'll gladly spill the beans. I came home and the CudaGuy project jumped 10 plus pages since thurs AM. Let alone my withdrawal from the site for 4 days. Too many threads to catch up on. Honestly I'm addicted to this family! :2thumbs:

I saw Don Garlits looking at the Cuda Very closely , I could tell he liked what he was seeing but never heard any comment about it , the body work & panel alignment is definatly exceptional for a restoration IMO especially a 6 week resto
 Great Work Tony  :2thumbs:

:iagree: 100%


Tony seriously - when it comes time to strip my car and paint it, I'm calling you for an estimate.  You did a top notch job.  I've worked at a restoration shop - I've been trained in this line of work, even if I don't have years of experience at it.  I've seen good jobs and bad jobs, and yours is definitely the former.

Ok I made it home!  While at the celebrity lunch I was on my way out when I spotted Mrs. Sox I wanted to thank her again for all her kindness and sitting next to her was Don Garlits.  After me and Mrs. Sox said our good byes Don Garlits said "Hey if you ever want to sell that car let me know."  I said "If you ever want to give a car away let me know!"  All of us just laughed, it was a great time.  Carlisle was awesome they really went over the top with their support and making us feel like family!
