LPE body kit progress
I bet it’s been almost a year since I started the instal on my car. I did post some pictures way back when.
i am happy to say it’s almost installed. I am told the last remaining problem is getting the nose piece to line up with the inner fenders. I finally found the right shop to do the work. I am just thrilled to get this done.
The next move is to have the engine gone through and all the mechanicals checked,replaced and or fixed.

Thanks for the compliment.
Jerry has offered to help me. I am sure I will need more parts from him as work begins under the hood. I already need a couple wilwood bolts that are on back order. I am hoping for minor part searches to get this finished.
The car made the trip to LPE 20 plus years ago. It’s been sitting and needs a through going through as a insurance policy.
i am thinking of getting the secondaries removed during the process.
Then it’s time for paint and finally the interior. By that time I will be tooo afraid to even drive the car and get a nick or god forbid a scratch.��

Here are the finished body kit install pictures.
We want the kit to hang while the rest of the work is done. Do a final fitting check exc....
Now it’s time for the engine to be gone through. I don’t trust anyone here in the SE so it’s a road trip next.
I am thinking of Carlisle as I have never been and then to one of our engine guru’s.
