    Hi from new/old guy from NC

    Hey guys, I'm Ronnie, a fabricator/mechanic here in the Lake Norman area. A Chevy guy all the way. Always wanted a tri5, never could find one at the right time. Had quite a few Camaros and pickups, My buddy found this "gem" and told me about it, so I went and bought it, I thought ... I'll have this finished in about a year. that was 2009. But still plugging along and starting to look like something. Thanks for the invite!

    Two door Handyman wagons are pretty cool, kind of a little brother to the Nomad. Here's one that we built a C4 Corvette conversion frame for. It has a 1000 HP turbocharged LS engine in it, 4-wheel disc brakes and is quite the sleeper. He was a neighbor of mine and built this car for his wife. He has another 55 2-door sedan with a 1500 HP twin turbo LS that he races.

    It is/was. I pulled any parts that were any good and scrapped the rest....there really wasn't much to it when I started.
