Thanks for the comments guys, I managed to get the metal filler panels for the grille/hood header panel made and welded in and also add a couple pieces to complete the Radiator cover panel. Still waiting on the car to get Primed.

I went to test fit the Radiator Cover and modified hood latch support also I wanted to check in on the progress (Getting Closer). I also ran a new paint color by the painter. I found some pictures of a 2013 Hot Wheels Camaro and really like the Kinetic Blue paint, I kind of felt bad because he had just showed me the Ferrari Gregio Silverstone he just whipped up for a test sample but he was a good sport about it and said he liked the blue also. I was thinking about a custom Matte Graphite stripe like in the last two Mustang pictures to make it different from the Camaro . I tried to use my photo program to get an Idea of what this would look like all together but I have no Idea how to do it, I might have to get out my pencil and crayola crayons. Enjoy the pictures

First off let me say I'm Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. With that said I swapped out my old new Fabricated K frame for the latest version offered by the builder, he said he wanted me to have the latest and greatest version for when the car is revealed. I made and welded the motor mounts K frame brackets on and now the motor can be assembled and the suspension can get Powdercoated, I still have to make the Alternator and Power Steering mounting brackets but obviously need the crankshaft and harmonic balancer installed to get the spacing right. Enjoy the Pics

Thanks ....any updates on your Demon build? Your build was one of the inspirations to start the Duster you see here.

I was just informed by the Suspension builder I installed the sway bar link wrong...its supposed to be under the lower control arm to work properly with the built in Anti dive geometry angle. Oops

No updates, I'm building a bagged/LS1 Rambler wagon currently.
