Paint is done and now the car is back at home ready to get assembled









no major flaws, a few tiny imperfections that can be lightly buffed out, but over all I am happy with the way it turned out -

Installing these this week thanks to George Marstanovic should have some excellent stopping power now.

Got some time to get into the garage and start mocking up some windows.









Did a rough cut and then trimmed what was needed once i started to put them against the car.











Did both sides and working on the rear now.

Damn this is a solid nice 14 man good job. Ive been thinking about taking welding classes and start fabricating this inspires me to get moving on it. Did you take welding classes / how hard was it to acquire this skill? Keep up the good work man, can't wait to see the finished product!!

I picked up an open diff for welding this weekend, took it apart to get all cleaned up and prepped.








All clean ready to go, I wonder how long this will last me at 400whp



coming together nicely, having to plumb the brake/clutch/fuel/ps lines this weekend as well.



I'll get more pics up soon.

Hey guys sorry, been on vacation for the last 4 weeks, I feel behind and the summer is in full effect, I will be getting some good hours in this week, changing the driver side to NASCAR bars and doing some final heat wrap and fire sleeve lines.
