Car is ready to be loaded for a test at NJMP next weekend.
Had to put wheels and tires from the stock car on the front for transport. (fitment issue, that will get addressed at track).

Schwanke LS3 sounds healthy and radical.

2500# w/o driver

Car will class as a V8stockcar.com V8 GT-1, SCCA SPO, NASA SU

The window opening is narrow. Driver needs it for egress.

Compsosite body on tube frame. Doors don't open/remove ie: Trans Am cars

Wow! it's really looking good!

I should be at NJMP Saturday (and maybe Friday), I'm looking forward to seeing it in person.

It is a cool ride, Ralph, you're gonna have a blast with this.

Kind of a lighter, more powerful Grand Am Rolex GT Camaro.

Looks like the removed piece can be replaced in one pic. Is the piece on a hinge or some other system to make the body "whole" after the driver enters?

Looks really cool, but looks like it'd be very hard to get out of in a crash/fire.

The owner didn't really like dealing with the "big fella" door flap. That area is just gonna be opened up a little more, with no hinged flap.
