TATurbo:
Hello TAC.  I've been waiting to see if my build thread can be revived before posting an update on my winter punch list.  I can summarize it by saying...
Got a bunch of little stuff done, but the list just will not disappear.  Every time we knock something off we find another little tid-bit to add!   
I figured maybe you guys might enjoy this to kill some of your Car related internet surfing time.   It's the article Hotrod.com just posted on our Turbo TA build!!!!

I'll say it here too Tom, congrats! I knew who's car that I as immediately when I saw the article pop up on my phone this morning!

RamblerRacer:
Very cool!  Saw this early in the am but did not post as it was early in the am. Not one to post overnight, just lurk a bit. The car is a rolling piece of art brother. Just a great story about a guy and his car like many others out there. Your story is a parallel of me and the AMC.  And you are wheeling the heck out of it like it should be.  Congratulations on the ink.

I saw the link in the lobby. Congrats Tom, to you, your wife and brother for doing a great job with the car. I dont know you personally, other than texting, but from the beginning I think you were rebuilding this car for your own personal satisfaction. I am sure the custom touches you did were ideas you had to refresh a tired old trans am that you had known for so many years. I highly doubt at any time during the process you had the 'end game' thought of car shows and trophies. That being said, you need to be prepared, I think there are going to be many more accolades in the future.
