Thanks. I'm pretty pumped about it myself. I come back a week from Sunday for another thrash. Can't wait!

So I got in Sunday night and have been going on the car since Tuesday. Progress is pretty good, though I wish I was a bit further but I'm still doing well. Here are a few photos, more to come later.

Final engine location... (unless I NEED more cabin space)

For perspective, the vertical line is the axle centerline, in-line with number one; meaning that the engine is set back quite a ways

On to the rear of the car. Pumpkin mounted

Almost finished with the rear, need to build the upper shock mounts and the tie rod adjuster mounts

Bis später!

The rear end is pretty close to finished. Just need to add mounts for the inner tie rods and I'm good to go. Also notice the air tank for the suspension hung behind the pumpkin. I wanted to hang the compressor and valve block there too but I don't have enough room.

rear suspension from the front

Front LCA's are built, still need to add a cross brace and the shock mounts (tomorrow)

Close to having the front suspension finished, just need to add shock mounts and move the rack up 1.5".

More when I'm awake enough to post. Back to Zurich tomorrow, had tons of exhausting fun. Big thanks to my friends Dave, Jeff, and Greg for everything, big or small!
