    Don't get me wrong. I loved the PRV. But this really gets you to the future, and with that sound.

    Yeah, that'll fix block rot all right!

    Wow, that looks good... both frame work and engine. I can see the attention to detail.

    Is that the venerable LS1?

    Awesome job!

    P.S. Please post a video of start up!

    Yes, LS1. I am going away for work for one month again. To be continued when I get back.

    I too cannot resist! Like Josh, open headers, lots of excitement, and some smoke.



    The photos above look awesome! More and more LS DeLoreans being made; what a time to be alive! When this thing fires up, it will make every effort you've made worth it!!

    Thanks and so do you. Your restoration is number one work.

    Hopefully Josh will still have a LS when I'm done. Nice work.
