Love the fab work. :king:

The car is looking incredible and I am enjoying the build. I espeically like all the blue tape as I think the tape is my second biggest unknown expense as I use to protect things and write notes and tape it to the area that needs to be addressed.

As for the Anvil inner fenders. I have a Carbon/Fiberglass set and they fit well on all the original sheet metal only had to modify a couple holes. I know a couple guys that had fitment issues with aftermarket fenders.

Not sure if you have seen the RS Nose from Keith @ Custom Works it looks like a nice piece.

I was concerned they would hit the frame with the modified subframe mounts but they tuck in nicely with the Speedtech Extreme frame.

Really nice build. Can you tell me more about the rear floor pan mod to give better muffler clearance? Do the rear seats still work or are you doing a rear seat delete?

Fantastic work, jaba. You did a great job with the canister and battery platforms in the trunk. Thanks for updating us.

Thanks mate! I hear you on the tape, our local hardware stores only stock high quality 3M stuff, costs a small fortune but cheaper than damaging the carbon / billet parts!

My fenders i believe are genuine GM parts, the areas of concern would be an issue no mater which fenders you have im sure, but as said nothing that cant be fixed, shame they have to be touched though.

I am planning on getting one of the one piece noses from Custom Works! Have been in contact but a little bit involved being from Aus of course.

Definitely plan on keeping a rear seat mate, the factory frames are very deep when compared to modern foams, you could get the factory seat frames to suit with some modification but i think you would be better off just replacing it with some modern seat foam that doesn't require the sprung bases like the factory ones do.

It will be pretty tight back there with the DSE tubs so i can't imagine anyone will want to be back there for extended periods of time, mainly for attending car shows etc.

Fantastic...at every step!....and yes!...you were way late in updating us. Thanks for the props, looking forward to seeing your vision. That prep cart is on a whole other level!!

The back seat with the DSE tubs isn’t that bad. It’s the proximity of the front seat to the back seat that’s tight. I did it for cosmetic reason only and I think it looks better to have a back seat.
