Thanks, looking fwd to getting this car done

Finally the body is on the car as well as the Holley Accessory drive.
I had to cut the tunnel up pretty good but that is an easy fix. Its nice to get the car back down and onto the frame.

My work is done now its time to turn it over to the pro to finish and paint the car, it goes to the paint shop tomorrow. I have laid out how the stripe will go so we will see. I also had to cut the tunnel up so the drive shaft cleared.

Looking good! That will definitely be a unique color on a C3. Just curious, what color are you going with for the wheel centers and side pipes?

I think black side pipes/headers is the way too go your thought? As for wheels I was going with Team III LT models which do not come in black. I looked a CCW Classics in black but the $$$ is pretty steep. Once the car is painted I will seek help from company's for brakes/calibers and wheels etc.

The C6 Z07 looks good in that color with black wheels. Might just be one of those wait-and-see things after the car is painted. Gotta be careful with too much orange and black so it doesn't look too 'Halloweeny'.
