Not updated this for a while, the car has been progressing steadily, all fabrication work is now completed, Craig has in-boarded the springs and minitubbed the car, and installed the chassis connectors, me and Marc have been down again today and have finished off the welding on the cage so craig can now put the car in the paint shop, he is painting the underside whilst on the spit, we will then go back install all the suspension plumb the brakes and fuel lines and run the main battery cable, it will then go back in its wheels for Craig to paint the body and inside the car.

All the interior is now trimmed, just waiting for the headliner and carpet from Kramer Automotive (would reccomend anyone to use them, very knowledgable and helpful), The motor is built (Thanks to Dave B), Craig is about to freshen the trans and install a steel drum and bolt in sprag.

Hopefully will have some more progress shots in a few weeks

Pete its a A&A trans manifold the indy ones have a bolt on top so you can switch set up, you can use a single 4, inline 4's 6 pack etc, for out and out racing supposed to be a no brainer but as this is been built for street/strip i went with the A&A :thumbright:

A local guy did the seats Steve, showed him a couple of pics of what I wanted and he did it, much cheaper than legendary etc when you factor in shipping etc, the 63 in the back ground is the one budgie sold to Ireland a few years ago, the one that had been 2 doored, Craig's doing some work on that for the new owner,
