rick k:cheers:

That looks great,makes me want to keep mine and build it.I'm thinking of putting it up for sale.I like the looks of post cars.Extending the body line back really makes a big difference.

Thanks for props guys!! Much appreciated. As said it's hard - especially seeing the car was suppose to be done 2 years ago. :rolleyes: Thanks again for the lead Rick on the door handles. John was great to deal with.

Like we say at work...Leave your feelings at the door, because they will get hurt!! :lol: Still drooling over it Jim. Thanks again!!

I came across a few pics from about a year ago. I was working on getting the motor compartment fabbed up. The inner wells, radiator cradle, pulley arrangement. Originally I was going with a Vintage Air front runner set up. A very cool compact set up but once the motor was in and I tried laying the radiator back 17 degrees to be parallel with the angle of the inner wells. I could only lay it down 5 degrees before coming in contact with it. I really wanted to keep it on the same plane so I starting searching around for other options. I came Jones Racing Products. They had a cool aggressive cog belt system I had to have. Great people to deal with. After doing some fabbing on the ALT bracket, I was able to run 1 belt for the WP, ALT & PS, and 1 for the AC. I have a second pulley for the crank that will drive the AC which will be mounted down low on the chassis on the pass side. Not much to look at - but it's a little something.

Hey Brent!! Car looks awesome! The bodywork looks amazing. I bet you are pretty excited to see it in its current condition. Good luck on the rest of the build. I'll be watching this thread with anticipation...
