That looks killer. Very nice.

We've made some progress lately.

All the trim pieces have been rechromed and polished. They look great. Can't provide any pics yet because they're still wrapped.

The fuel lines have been completed and Trevor installed new fuel rails and a fuel pressure gauge. He also fit the hood louvers onto the hood which required some tweaking.

Dick found a nice silicon reducer to connect the throttle body to the fresh air intake. It wasn't easy. The diameter goes from 4 1/2 inches on the TB to 4 inches on the FAI and not many around with that combo.

I really like the fresh air intake setups on both Matt's car and Greg's car. So I copied aspects of both of them.

I'll post pictures later. Gonna paint the dual air intake tubes body color.

We used Marquez CID badges for the fender emblems:

Trevor and I are now working on the Anvil closeout panel. We wet sanded it and are going to paint, color sand and polish it. That ought to be fun. Jon cringes when I tell him were gonna be painters.

What valve covers are those? I like the clean look without the coil brackets

Thanks. I like them, too. And they're cheaper than going with the Katech coil relocation kit. Stever Rupp suggested I look into getting a set.

Great update Bry!

I bet Trev is a better painter than you...

Looking good man!

Ron Davis radiator and fans, glass, drive shaft, fresh air intake, Borla exhaust, DSE wiper assembly and Optima battery all due to be installed in the next couple weeks. We've got some wiring and chrome plating that needs to be finished as well.

Lots more pics coming soon.

Inspired by Jamess113, Trevor and I cleaned, media blasted and painted the window hardware. It was very easy to remove the gunk using dichloromethane.

It came out great.
