I hear ya dan, but ambition isn't all of it. Money was no object when I did the 73 and 75 EMS's(finances have changed drastically in a few years), and I was also truly motivated when I did those two cars > did one in six months, and the other in nine. I've had this 78T in the garage since last June, and the work involved is as much as the other two combined were, or so it seems like it's that bad....and the three door 99's do not do it for me like the notchbacks do. I took this project in to save it from the crusher, so......
There is a good possibility that GM's heritage fleet may be interested in taking over this project, and they have an unlimited budget from what I've seen of their collection of 700+ cars. I was told I just need to finish the bodywork before they'd be interested in it.
73-78 for EMS's in the states, and I'm sure there were tons more of them produced than the one year run of the 78T's.
