Those headlights are certainly some of the icing on the cake. :thumbsup:

Seeing all that is/will be going into this build, I would think it would be hard not to drive this car...a lot! :unibrow:

Looking forward to some first hand feedback on how much a top notch chassis/suspension adds to the driving dynamics of these big cars.

I bet Todd is on the phone ordering some for himself right NOW!!.:rofl:

Love to see the backside of that headlight tray - what is it made of ? pot metal ?

I have just found that sometimes making "small" fabrications like mounting headlights, fixing trim, etc. can be a much harder job than a big job like welding on a 1/4 panel, so I"m just curious how and what you did to the backside to mount those headlights. I can't follow every post but those are new aftermarket headlights or something from OEM ? They kind of remind me of mini headlights except they are not round.
Never mind I went back and found out.

If you guys didn't pitch so much crap in these threads we'd have room for some real tech !

Can't remember what those seats came out of either. (never mind I went back and read).

They look like they weigh 158 lbs apiece.

Another thing I"m curious about is the brackets holding the seat rails look a bit crude and one big problem I have when building is going from a basic easy to build bracket to something that can be covered cosmetically so you don't just have a .120 plate hanging out of the carpet - I will be interested to see how you end up with that thing aesthetically.

Greg lives near me, and I find it interesting he is using a shop in CA. I've often wondered if there are any good custom fab shops up here, I never seem to hear about any other than way out of my time and money budget Divers.
