Great idea for a thread.


I guess if there's any one particular part of my car that I'm the happiest with, it would have to be the motor. The LS7 is amazing.

I like many things about my car...but I'm really proud of my Fikse wheels! Oh, and I love my rendering too!

So far, the DSE tubs. I'm still in the metalwork phase, but I'm sure wheels, suspension mods, etc. will supercede the tubs in the near future.

I have a lot of favorite mods on my car but the most recent ones are always the most favorite for me.

Here are some pics of the latest one.Not the best pics but they work. It is a gas cap cover that is actually the kill switch for the whole car. It fits over the Flaming River push style kill switch and the center can be removed to make it easily visible on track days when I finally make it to them. I have a lot of thoughts of how to finish it and it is basically a blank ready finish. It is functional and does just what it is supposed to do. I keep thinking of so many ways to do it that i am going to wait until I get a few more things completed on the car to try and put everything together as a theme somehow.

It is one of the first pieces I have made on my Index mill I bought this year.

So far has to be doing my own Mini-tub along with 335 sized tires in the rear on a stock width rear end:



With a stock lip you really don't notice the tires from the sides until you get behind the car:





Also fitting aftermarket gauges in the stock dash is another favorite:
