    Any idea how far down the glass will go once you set the bottom stopper? Looks really nice.

    If I hadn't already made a set I would definitely order them. Looks great.

    Snow, snow and more snow!

    Absolutely nothing got done in the garage this weekend. Too much time spent cleaning up after the blizzard that just swept through.

    48 hours ago I had a clear yard with no snow in site. Now look at this mess. The storm dropped anywhere from 24" to 40" depending on the drifts, or where in the state you were. My wife and I spent seven hours yesterday, and another three hours today doing the final clean up. No energy left for the garage. Looks like another weekend wasted.

    I love this long driveway when the weather is nice. But in the winter it is a real pain to deal with.

    That pile in front of the garage was not pushed there. That is just as the snow fall left it. This is the garage where the fun happens on the Maverick.

    I am standing at ground level taking this picture. Yes, the plow stacked it up pretty high.

    wow tons of snow....

    when you get back out to the garage, may i ask a favor...?
    i just want a couple pics of where the door bars are attached at, i want to cut mine out without taking the skins off. i actually thought you would have put your NOS skins on by now seems those windows work amazing. keep up the awesome work once the snows out of the way!

    I am going to be a thorn in your side, but will you provide me with the parts list you have attained. Companies, I am in the middle of my build and I like what you have going. Wanna steal a few things ;)

    I will take a few for you soon. I haven't done the skins yet as I am trying to get the shell in primer ASAP. Then I will move forward with the doors. Also, I didn't want to put the skins on until I had the issues with the power windows rectified. I am ready to go now.

    Anything in particular you are looking for? I could flood you with pictures and info. It would be easier to know what information you might be looking for.
