I like the car to be as rigid as possible and give the shocks the chance to do their job.

I will post up more pics soon. The fab work is done and it's now getting the body finished up. I just got the new prototype adapter back for the blower inlet, so Greg should be running her this summer.

Oh, I should have mentioned. That blower in the pic is not keeping that elbow coming around to the side for the throttle body. It will be drawing the air through the cowl instead. Will look waaaaaaay better and pick up some extra ponies.

This pic shows why those shock reserovoirs were pointing up like that to the floor. Makes them a little easier to adjust and keep them out of the way.

I also don't care for the way the bottom of the quarters are as well as the bottom of the tail light panel. Especially when it had 2 different brands of aftermarket quarters previously installed (they didn't match). So I made a panel on the bottom that would not only round things up and smooth them off, it would also mate up to the underbody panel to cover up the fuel tank and help with air flow.

nice work! Not sure if I would get under the car while it was on those boards and tiny unstable jacks though....
