I got this car from my father, who bought it in 1988. He drove it exactly once and spun a bearing. He had (has) a bunch of other cars, so the Javelin sat. In 2015 he gave it to me and I started the tear down. Man oh man is this a long drawn out build. How I got it. |

June of 2019 I got the engine back from the machine shop. Many, many dollars later. March 2021 it went back in. |

Finally we're up to the driver side quarter panel cut off and started for fitment. Waiting on trunk drop-offs that should be here today (5/20/22). Might get a quarter or 2 hung this weekend. |

As in-depth as you’d like - I personally would like to see the Vintage Air install. Not as sexy as the other stuff, but hey, I live in Florida.
Great job so far!

I agree, as much as you are willing to spend time documenting! That is a huge amount of progress so far. And it looks great! Thanks for sharing!
