Sorry that its been a while since we updated this thread!! Parts are rolling in and the car is starting to come together.. As you can see in the pics there was a lot of work needed to fit such a big engine is such a small hole.. Once it was in place we designed engine mounts that would allow room for headers. The engine mounts in the pics will be remade out of aluminum.. In the rear we had to massage and widen the rear quarter panels/wheel openings .75 to allow room for the tires. You can see in the pics where we split the outer rear wheel house to allow room for the quarter to move. Stay posted for more updates!! March is right around the corner. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the update I inquired about, this IMO may be the nicest Giveaway car yet, Hey its a Ford, but Im partial to that year. Plus you don't see many of this year in PT style.

Don't worry the Mustang is slated to be done in March(as long as we get the needed parts). The Nova we are pushing on hard and I hope we are Ready for the Faceoff in April!!!

DSE is putting on a 2.1 mile road course & autoX. April 30-May 2 in Hastings, Nebraska. I am hoping to have all the bugs worked out of the Nova by then.
