Long time, no update. Not long after the last post I wasn't really feeling myself. I've been lacking motivation on the car and a bunch of other health issues that kind of came at me all at once. Did some testing with the Doc and a few biopsies and it turns out I have Thyroid Cancer. Sucks, but at least I have a reason and I'm supposed to have surgery in the next week or so. I've still been chipping away at the car trying to force myself to get stuff done, but defiantly drag my feet most of the day.

Anyways, let me get you caught up as to where I'm at. Shifter linkage is done.




I needed a way to mount my ECM so I modeled up a mount. Final print will be out of carbon fiber reinforced nylon.





Wiring has been mostly done on the rear speed sensors, transmission, and engine harness.








With how I want to wire my car I needed a few different fuse blocks for the ignition relays and stuff not running through my Infinity Box. The left of the glove box opening on the C6 dash is a good spot and the passenger dash end it another great spot. Modeled up some mounts and printed mock up pieces.









While I had the drive train dropped out it was a good time to add some fish plates to the torque tube tunnel just for a little extra strength. I also finished out the section of floor behind the seat to the fuel tanks. On the top side I have a reinforced box so I could bolt a lift puck so I have a good spot to jack without crushing the floor or side skirts when they're bolted on. I also cut out the bottom frame filler panel to run the dry sump oil lines through.











Interion lighting has been upgraded to LED's as well mounted with more 3D printed parts.






With the wide body needing to be wider then the Anvil finders already are scanned a previously mocked up widened fender and modeled it up in CAD to be able to make a mold and mirror it for the passenger side. Lots of prints later and I have a few molds. Hit them with high build to get rid of the layer lines and blocked them out to see what is gonna need filler work before I can pull a carbon part from them.














I final print both dash ends in glass reinforced ABS and fiber glassed them into a full size panel before final shaping and bonding them to the dash. The driver side from the previous update is for my hood release.







I was originally going to 3D print my door panels, but it is a ton of work for me to figure out how to get the base of the panel to fit the door right so instead of wasting a ton of time I decided to start with a set of Fesler panels and cut them up to fit my dash and body. Needed to shorten the rear panels a lot. The front needed the speaker and center sections moved back to fit the dash. Now I can foam and fiberglass the upper section to fir the dash for better flow. From these I'll scan and model up arm rests, grab handled, and door release buttons.
