That would be great, I know I've learned a thing or 3 from your build, and questions you've helped me with along the way
Thanks

That oil fill cap is pretty slick. Will you keep it body color?

Engine, transmission and rear end are in. Setting drive line angles measuring for the driveshaft, fabricating the tunnel to the Tremec., but first we looked for a trans cross member. We looked for something strong but would allow enough room for a 3 inch exhaust to tuck nicely under the floor. The bottom cross member came from Bowler, the middle Chris Alston and not sure where the top one came from.
