Short-Throw

The car is only 2 days late for it's date to the paint shop. Only the interior will be painted at this time. The exterior paint scheme is in it's final drafts. I've had a few to choose from and quite frankly cannot make up my mind. Trying to keep it somewhat simple and not all sticker-ed up like a moving billboard.

Once it returns from paint, suspension, diff cooler, trans cooler, etc...will start to be mounted.

Hey Mike...I havent been posting on the forum for a while but I have been lurking and following your project. It really looks like everything is coming together very nicely. You've certainly jumped into this project with both feet and arent taking any short cuts. I'm really anxious to see the finished product.

Have fun with that beast when its all done.

I saw a picture of your shocks. Give that this is a somewhat c6.r inspired build are you running OEM spindles and control arms ? If not let us know what you're doing.

Well I saw deathproof as part of the grindhouse double feature & I can
tell you Kurt Russell would have been safer in your car
