Looks great Ed.
I like the colors that you have on there now. Maybe a darker blue to add a bit more contrast, in my opinion. Good luck!

Once I got the shell into the shop the one thing that stuck out like a sore thumb were the cowl vents. So the only option to me was cover them up. Here is the process of the way we did it.







This was a little tough to make fit and follow the lines 100% but after a little bit of time on the english wheel this is what we got.







We did one side at a time to keep the metal from twisting and doing wacky things once we cut the area out and put the new part in.





Once we did that I think it just cleaned up the whole area and now it has a smooth look to it.

Once we got the metal work all done on the cowl area next was to put together the front clip. For that I choose the Chris Alston's Chassisworks G-Machine stuff. It is very high quality and was just what we needed. You can tell a lot of thought went into building the parts. Here are some pictures.

Lower A-Arms










The Power Rack set up. This bolted in really nice and uses some really cool billet clamps to hold the rack on.

I wanted to have a coil over in the car so I didn't have to worry about the air side of things. I got the double adjustable Vari-Shock.


Also to make sure the car has no problems stopping I got the 14 inch Wilwood 6 piston brake set-up also made by Chassisworks.


Here is the whole clip built and ready to be bolted to the main body.
