Looking good!! Cant wait to see those dyno numbers. Any idea on what your weighing in at?

I'm going to try and corner wieght it Monday before it goes to the shop. It needs a full four wheel alignment before hitting the dyno. I want it at ride height when they align it. I'm guessing about 3000-3100? It's gutted, and the whole drivetrain is Aluminum except the driveshaft. The wishful thinking benchtop dyno says 415 HP. We'll see...
I'm having a weekend long racecar build party through monday if anyone wants to fly in and lend a hand! I'll even put you up in an oceanfront hotel room! LOL
Maybe we should start a thread for garage built cars built alone! I'm going to get a banner to hang in my garage that says "Tony Stark built one in a cave!" seems to be my motto.

went over and helped hang the front sheet metal today, took a little walk around video

I dont know how to embed the video so only a link for now

Sweet. Get that puppy aligned and dynoed. Cant weight to hear how that independent rear feels on the track. :thumbsup:

Man it was nice to finally have some help! Several of my local F-body friends came over today to help with the assembley. Without them, there is no way I would have gotten this much work done!
Pulled all the extra body parts out of my shed and discovered a family of squirels have been living inside my doors!

After some pulling and tweaking, and the customery cussing, It all came together rather nicely.

Found this picture in the camera and it really shows how much tire I have under this thing.

You need to get better help. That guy in the background is Lazy! :lol:

That's a lot of tire! Congrats on it looking like a car again.
