Stripped!!
 

It's been a pretty big weekend! I just finished the big tear down for paint. I'm going to finish a few loose ends and then paint the SF and bottom, get it back to a roller, and then it's off to Chris (race-rodz) for body and paint!! It's been 5.5 years to get this far...time is very limited, but I work on it when I can! :) I'll attach some torn down pics from today as well as some from the other day to show how mocked up it really was. The SF is torn down now as well and ready to be sand blasted.

Also, I talked to a engine builder last week and the LT1 will be going in soon for machine work and bottom end assembly with all the new forged parts and blower pistons. Meanwhile the heads will go in for porting. Things are finally moving forward!! Just had to share!!

Super cool :thumbsup:
What rear clip are u running?

Thanks guys!

It's a parallel 4-bar that I built. I started with a 4-bar kit from AME...but there's not much left of that! I basically hand built the whole thing!! It was a ton of work and if DSE's Q-Link was available back then I would have bought it!

Looking WicKeD! Cant wait to see some paint on it. :thumbsup:

WoooHooooo!:thumbsup:

Anthony - looking great! What's your paint color gonna be?

Looking good Anthony. :thumbsup:

Thanks Guys for the kind words...it helps get threw all the loooong hours!!

The paint color is a story in itself and almost changes daily...sorry Chris! It was going to be silver, I really like the silver on my wife's Acura TL. But, now that I've seen it mocked up I'm thinking the car has more attitude than I origionally thought it would and that it needs a little more 'color' than silver, so I think its back to blue (my origional choice). At the moment I'm really liking Lemans Blue (C6 Z06) but I need to see it in person...:_paranoid

Jen and I sat down and looked at a lot of members car pics (thanks Scott!!) yeasterday and she helped me make some decisions I was on the fence with...glad to have a cool wife that actually has input on the car!

Again thanks for the kind words! I know tear down pics aren't as fun to look at as paint pics. I'll keep you guys in the loop with the final paint choice! ;)
