I'm still thinking about this. :) and now after looking at the front end on Payton's build I'm heading out to the shop to look at boxing in the top again.

Awesome job on all this. Not just anyone could engineer and build their own suspension components. That's something to be proud of.

Thanks Brendon. I get inspiration from you guys and your awesome builds. Your car has a lot of custom work put into it that not only make it look cool but improve function. I'm trying to do a little of that.

The first gear and cluster gear in my Super T10 have seen better days.

My dad found a place in Spokane to pick up a new cluster gear and first gear.

The old first gear makes a nice stand to hold the main shaft waiting for assembly. I had to pick up a new case and mid plate but now have all the parts for my dad to put it together.

I've settled on my current coilover mount reinforcement after staring at it for a while and consulting with my dad who has an engineering background. The thought is the internal gusset extends beyond the apex of the hinge point and the major force will be vertical going upward. One step closer to pulling the subframe and prepping for epoxy.

My fathers got the main part of the gearbox together. He's now working on the tail housing and building a shifter. I was pretty excited to see the pic he sent! I'm anxious to start installing parts in the car even though its still a little ways out.

The family has been kicking around color ideas. We all agree on Crystal Red Metallic and Berlin Blue Metallic. We also like Cyber grey. I'm kinda leaning toward Berlin Blue right now. The car won't be painted for quite a while but I would like to get the under body, engine compartment, and subframe in final color before assembly. I like the idea of a charcoal metallic engine compartment and subframe with the Crystal Red body color or satin black with the Berlin Blue body color. Berlin Blue is known as NightvRace Blue on the Corvette.
