Default 'My Car'.....

I don't want to get into it, but lets just say I was very glad to see 2011 end and to have a fresh start with 2012! I actually started the year off right and spent New Years Day in the garge working on my car for the first time in months...litterly! I don't have a huge update, but here's what I'm working on at the moment.

But first I need to thank my close friends, you know who you are, that keep enough wind in my sail to keep me going! Thanks guys!! Last week was the 10 yr mark of this build...it's time to find the end of it! I'm very blessed to have a great network of local members/friends that are more than ready to help get it on the road...again, thanks guys!

After cleaning the garage this is what I found.



After a lot of thought and fitting it was obvious that the new quarters and the 3-piece spoiler were never going to play nice...so I went back to a one piece.



Next up was the tear down of the front sheet metal and suspension so I can weld on the UCA gussets. Mine was one of the last Speedtech frames that shipped before they started adding the gussets.



That's it for now! The frame and gussets are ready for me, so I better go make some sparks!

Lets hope the updates are a lot more frequent now!!
