The roof also needed help... Someone or something sat across the roof- leaving eyebrow shaped creases. A previous owner painted the car, but the dents were filled with bondo... The roof looks 100 times better after some hammer and dolly work.

Looking at the 15" two-piece BAER rotors from the back side....

I can't say enough good things about the brakes. The quality and precision is top notch. The 6 piston 6S calipers are machined from a single piece of aluminum and the anodized coating is the icing on the cake! Baer's customer service is unbelievable as well. They have gone above and beyond our expectations and I would recommend them to anyone in the market for high performance brakes!

Thanks Rob!

I can't wait to see it on the ground. The top of the roof will be ~49" off the ground at ride height... Can't really get that visual while the car is still on the frame fixture....

The Quicktime bellhousing doesn't locate the starter in the exact location. The mid plate is more precise and a nose cone support is in the plans as well....

Front motor mount plate in the works as well.... The stock 6.1 timing chain cover has a lot of extra brackets that we won't need.
