Excellent work, Steve! Congrats on making the time crunch even if it's not 100% yet.

is it running and driving?

well done, did the carbon lead time affect the build time?

Not very often the rendering looks like the final build, this one does, awesomely

interior close? love to see some pics....how did the rear come out?

Thanks buddy!! John saw it in person alright!! We were talking on the phone in late December I believe and I mentioned the deadline I had to get done by for the car show. John immediately said he had to come in this general area (well 2 states away) for work in the next couple of weeks and how about if he stopped by and helped for a few days. Hell yeah! Turns out his work trip fell through and he came and spent a few days helping anyway. That was awesome and I can't thank John enough. It was great bouncing ideas off one another. My only regret was having somebody with John's fabrication talent there and all of the fabricating pretty well done lol. He did end up building pretty much all of the oil and power steering lines and not 1 leak.
As many have said this hobby isn't just about the cars, it's all the great friends we make along the way.
BTW I cant wait to fly down and give him a hand. Thanks again John!!!!

Thanks Trey. I didn't go anywhere near the shop for the next couple of weeks after the show. My wife kinda suggested that that would be a good idea

Thanks Mike it is running (I have a video somewhere ) It is not driving, have a short list of things to do yet, bleed the brakes, clutch fluid, little exhaust work, wire the headlights and fans etc. lol But the weather here is still way to crappy to get it out anyway!!

The carbon fiber affected the build time in a Big way in both the lead time and the time to get it to fit correctly. and almost

The interior is done except the interior guy is coming back to fix the carpet. My interior pics are pretty lousy, I took some new ones today with my camera but now my pc wont read the card.
In process pic of the dash.




A really bad shot of the back area.
