Great work, you work fast

Question, when you install/weld in the DSE brake/clutch bracket do you have to make a sheet metal filler panel to make up to space from the bracket to the firewall?

Hi Scott, I did actually fab in some sheet metal to close out that area...attached are some pics. I metal finished the welds once it was done to make it look "seem-less". Is your Avatar the rendering of your car??...Love it!!

Thanks Dave for posting some photos, that helps me out a lot. My profile photo is just one idea. I still go back and forth with color combos. Keep up the good work on your project and I will keep watching for more updates. Thanks again. Scott

Some pics of the G-Link install and trunk work. The trunk floor replacement was not planned, but the car had a vinyl top and had the typical water leaking/rust issues that caused some pin holes in the trunk...

A few pics of the subframe being converted to coilover shocks. One of those decisions I wished I had really thought through. After spending all the $$AND LABOR to convert to coil-over shocks, mounts, control arms, upgraded steering box, sway bar, etc... I should have spend a little more and just put a DSE subframe in the car..... Oh well, lesson learned for the next build.
