Eric,

Well, you've definitely got the cool factor covered. :wow:

Plus the neighbors must be thankful for your contribution to their rising property values. :unibrow:

The neighbors think it's a riot and that I'm mostly nuts, but hey... better known for that than other crap ;)

Yes, I HAD to test fit the body last night for no other reason than just because.

I found a couple areas where it's catching and my measurements for the front strut bars for the front spoiler were off, hence the front nose sticking up too much, I'll have to move those at a steeper angle on the front nose.

The air inlet tube isn't looking promising as it hits the rear body work, I'll try and rework it once I get the rear clam in it's final place and bolted up.

The exhaust pipes somehow got misaligned so I'll have to fiddle with those to get them to line up properly in the holes. I'll also have to enlarge one hole on the drivers side, as it's touching the pipe.

It was suggested by more than one person that my clutch pedal is probably out of adjustment as well. And since it SNOWED, yes snowed last night, I wasn't able to test out the new adjustment.

Nothing on the suspension is right so that'll be another task to tackle.

But for now, mother of hell it looks awesome!

Was this somewhat easy to build? Ive been thinking about getting one at some point but not sure how hard it would be to build verses a Factory Five where they give you the giant manual.

I think so, no more headaches or difficulty than building anything else really.

Does your Stack dash plug directly into the OBD port for the motor? Any reason you choose that dash over the other digital dashes on the market?
