THANKS: There have been a couple of major people that supported me through this build; Blake (Cany) and Bennie (MB Fabworx) of Cany Customs for the flawless panel and paint work — serious time and effort went into the look we were going for; Blake, again, for the drive to build this; Daniel Cowie for the awesome interior job; Dean at Elite Wheels for the awesome finishing work on the wheels; Dave and the boys at Elite Powder Coaters for all the powder work; Jeremy at Harris Auto Electrical and Performance for all the electrical work (and tidying my f*ck ups); Nick at NST for getting me all sorts of genuine parts; the boys at ChaChaCha; Marty for letting me slack when need be; Alex Brown at Moonlight Racing for sourcing the kit; Falgoon and the boys at Speedmagnet for giving me the opportunity to show this car around the country; and to all the other people who have helped and chipped in along the way, it’s all the little things that help. Last, but most importantly, to Haylie, my ever-supportive fiancée — she kind of just lets me roll with the crazy ideas and they always pull through — and Paige, my daughter, for constantly misplacing the 10mm socket in the garage … kids love hide and seek, huh?
