Although I am listed as a new member, I have been on the board since the very early days. I started work on this Bradley in mid 1994. I started with a very incomplete kit and had to fabricate many of the parts on the car. Some of you "old timers" may remember that at one time I was selling Bradley GTll windshields. I made many refinements such as completely re glassing the roofline to allow Chevy van side windows to be used as pop up sun roofs, Honda Prelude tail lights, Fiero seats, eliminate hood and quarter window louvers, 4 wheel disk brakes, electric latches for the hood, hatchback, and engine cover, and glassing the top and windshield posts to the body. I finally realised that if I did not hurry up and get this "thing" done, I was going to have to hire an attendent to drive along behind my wife and me to help us in and out of the car. The last thing I need to do is put a nice steering wheel in and I will persue that tommorow. The car has been driven 102 mile so far and everything seems to be OK. I can not even begin to calculate how many hours I have put into this car. They have all been good hours. I will post a few photos here, and if they come out OK, I will post some others later.

Dan, Thanks for the tip on posting photos. The site information sheet states that you can only post one image per message, so that is what I did. I will try your suggestion next time I post because it will certainly be faster for me and better for the reader. Thanks again. Gregory Whitney Attachments:

Greg... That has to be one of the best looking GT2's I have ever seen....After owning 13 of these beasts, I think I am a pretty good judge, and yours takes the cake...I finally did get too old to get in and out of the things, so I have switched to dune buggys... Great build, really outdid yourself ..... ;D bobevans

Very Nicely done and clean lines! 1 question though, what color is your paint? I don't think I have seen a shade like that for quite a while, I like it.
