That's really interesting. Using lasers to make hot rod parts. Who would've thought this 10 years ago?

Need to have the AC knobs and the switches anodized so quicky fit up to pick the sheen.

So true. Even the laser guy was not sure it was going to work. Nothing ventured..... Hope all is well.

I cannot wait to see the dash installed in this car. It’s going to look incredible.

Thanks Marty. Soon!

Taking a bit of a break from making the lower splitter, going to fab in some doors into this Fiat. Gotta earn my keep here in this shop, Kenny and his guys are being more than gracious letting me stay here for a while, so I'm gonna do my part. Local old school drag race guy looking for a little blown hot rod to cruise around and cause trouble, so it needs some doors. Should be a fun distraction.
