Yes, the BOS men rock. Building our cars there has been a great experience for my son and me. They deserve lotsa accolades. And Matt and Steve have been very helpful, too.

Its such a biiiiig part of the cars personnality.... I just dont get it. Oh, and hey, remember before anwsering....never say never!

I've come all the way up from 255s. No! I won't say it.

You don't have to say it we can read your mind
The car looks awesome! They do awesome work, and at light speed at BOS! With no corners cut. I love that rendering, I'm drooling all over myself. Glad to see it move ahead so well.

For various reasons, too numerous to go into detail here, I decided to pitch the "sleeper/retro" look and go all in with an in-your-face PT car.

Ahahaha....you woke up! Looks real good Bryan. Congrats buddy. Def (Best of) Show worthy. Looks like Profile 5s in the render...

LOL!! I TOTALLY understand my friend!!! Having bought and started my car as a full on PT car (Forgeline 19 x 9 and 20x 13 w 345's, air ride, t56, LS and C6 Z06 brakes and all...) and finally sold everything and went to Caltrac front and rear w adjust shocks and a BB w a 400 and a brake w a 14 point cage! I know what it is to change your mind!! On top of things... Car is almost ready to get out after 4 plus years and i'M looking at progressively turning it back to PT (wheels first then brakes etc) but slowly. as i learned changing ways costs A Mother fu/!*% lot!!!!

Keep it up thats all that counts!

She's back in shoes.

DSE subframe, Quadralink and subframe connectors installed. I think the DSE T-56 transmission crossmember is next.

[Ron in SoCal]

Wow Bryan. Love that cross member! Perfect for the DSE sub and a T56...

Some more pics. Things are moving rapidly.

Here are some shots of the Quadralink/9inch installation process:
