Busy few days, some rack mockups, measurements and then back to the jig. Billy’s been getting a bunch of the little parts all knocked out and I’ve been doing paper work along with the last programming for parts off to the laser.

Fenders, wheels and fire wall, and seat checks and mockups







Billy Painted the Semi Gloss Metallic Charcoal Gray on the wheels race wheels and the street wheel.



Decided we didn't like the fire wall, really we hadn't changed it sine the move from auto the manual transmission so we needed to re adjust the position for the driver.

Back onto the jig table for driveline angling, exhaust and sheet metal work.








On the Jig with the body




Put the wheels on it for further clearances checking and just to see what she looks like






We’ll get the motor in tomorrow and go from there
