Thanks for asking
 
But not too much to report. Living in the land of NASCAR, I have lots of cool places all around me. One of those places is MSI Racing, they do custom wheel studs and lug nuts. They supply pretty much all of the NASCAR guys and have starting suppling most of the guys in GT, Grand Am, etc.

I was nervous about the 12mm stock studs in the front hubs so I went up to see MSI. They are hooking me up the a 14mm stud from the front and a custom 14 mm stud for the floating rear hub...replacing the 5/8 stud that is in there now. The cool thing is they are building it the same size as the 5/8 stud at the bottom so my drive plate will still have some support and then the front and rear will match.

Finally made a decision on a seat and will be mounting it, steering, pedals and making some mounts for the motor plate.

Updates coming soon.

You're worried about wheel studs!? Get the car finished would yah! My junk will be worn out and on version 2.0 before you're done at this rate. :poke:

I'd really like to pile on with Tim hear, but have no room to talk. Lets see some progress in 2014.

Thanks for the support
 
I think? LOL

I am ready to move forward and have a little time before soccer starts up. I will see what I can do.

:lol: Payton, want to borrow some of that body armor I borrowed from Rob?

I saw the studs Rob got from MSI and they looked very nice.

Dude. Quit holding out. You can't golf and lift weights every day. :action-smiley-027:

My car has been moved to the Land of Forgotten Projects. It is a lot like the Island for Misfit Toys.
