Not yet. Still getting the new house and garage in order. I've been getting small parts done in the meantime. The shed will be done in the spring so the garage will be empty and available for the car. I have been following some leads in selling my NOS sheetmetal but nothing has materialized.

I got my Fesler back up lights this week, and they turned out great. as far as I know Fesler is the first to put these out so far and I have been asking for a few years now. I offered to work with Amy and Chris on the fitting because they did not have a real RS in the area and I really want a set for Envy. My buddy Scott Spicer had a real RS in his shop so we used it for fitmit. We got them to a point where they are a direct bolt on. took about 15 minutes to install. Another great product from Fesler. Thanks Chris.

bigtyme1 04-02-2010 06:59 PM

ok, know that Tracy has the car I need to think of some ideas for the engine compartment. I need to get rid of the fuel rail covers but I can't get nice valve cover yet, I still have the old perimeter heads and there's not to many options out there got any idea's ? Also learing how to use Photo Bucket.

bigtyme1 04-02-2010 07:03 PM

I may just go with this idea, I like and it's very clean. Saw this car in tacoma goodguys a few years back. I'm also thinking about the anvil filler panel for the core support. May radiator is ruff looking so either I polish it or paint the top to match.

The Anvil radiator cover is a great looking piece. And thos custom covers look really good too.

Is there not any options for better looking valve covers for your heads? I am not familiar with what is out there.

Spiffav8 04-02-2010 11:30 PM

Mark...you know me. I always say less is more and I like a simple clean look. Your car is awesome and honestly I can only think of one thing that I think would look good. How about a closeout panel? Here's a picture I borrowed from DSE. Just a thought...it will look amazing regardless.

Proud of him, he hit it out of the park. Not many weekend warriors with half that talent.

It is an Isotta, italian made. They also make the wheel for Flaming River called Waterfall.

bigtyme1 04-15-2010 03:25 PM

Thanks tracey, I tried as hard as possible to make a perfect car. I still don't think it holds up to a lot of guys out there but I did it as a challenge to myself. Looking back I would have done more and made a few changes. But it's now time to drive it. I'm sure once You get done with it, it will be over the top.

Yes, the wheel is Isotta, I like the feel but it's a little to small to see all the gauges as your driving it, but will get used to it. Or maybe I'll change my mind. Emagine that!

Todd, Thanks bud, coming from an onwer of a pro built that means alot.

Steve, You need to take a little credit on this as well. There will be alot of people to thank when this is all done.

Called DSE today, nothing in the works for customers yet. I'm leaning towards the Anvil once I figure out how to modify it a little.

Love the clean look also. Something to think about, not for everyone, but maybe to consider. I'm doing this to my engine bay. Here's the catch. It's a one piece removable. Will have a close out panel over front just not mocked up yet.

Car will keep standard inner guards. This one piece internal will be bolted in and will be easily removed without damage to anything.

Matt@BOS 04-28-2010 12:48 AM

Mark, does your core support have all the factory holes in it, or did you fill them up? For me, the deciding factor when choosing closeout panels was which one covered up the most so that people wouldn't be able to see the myriad holes punched into it.

Looks really good! Be sure to post up progress on the interior as it comes together.

No I never filled the factory holes, my original plan was to get the DSE filler panel but after Mike made the resevors for me I did not want to cover them up. I have a filler panel from undercover I may use for now. I need to see the Anvil piece up close before I spend the money.

Tracey is in charge of all the pictures for the interior and as you can see he likes to tease me. After the 1:30 am confersations this week I can tell you it will be more then I hoped for. Tracey has basically turned this into his personal project as always.
