Got a few more pics! The exhaust tip cutouts are pretty well done except for a little bit of grinding.

A few more pics of the rearend with the new DSE floater ends. I installed some ARP studs and bolted the brakes on. Of course had to have a look with the wheels on.

Steve the car looks great and keep posting pics as it keeps us all motivated.

Looks great! Hard to understand the hood/fender issue. Can only assume the molds started with factory parts, so that much of a difference in the joints seems like it came from the hood warping after it was removed from the mold?? Assuming you are painting the hood, it could be fixed with some cuttin' and glass'n. Feeling your pain!! Engine looks sweet!

Hi John I should have posted a little more info, the hood fitment is not as big of an issue as the picture makes it look. The top and bottom halves have not been bonded together yet and it's pretty easy to pull the "corners" down into position. I'm using Aerocatch supprorts at the corners and that should work well. The nose piece, that's another story :confused18:
