We haven't touched the interior yet. It was fairly standard, black on black, Marquez doors etc. There are interior pics here: http://www.nelsonracingengines.com/t...ercar-004.html

The recent sheetmetal work is around 2 weeks to this point.

Awesome work as usual guys. The metal work around the rear is sick!
I was just there and didn't even realize what was going on with this car. Have to pay more attention to it next time.

Your guy's ability to turn those way cool renderings into actual metal is just amazing...Not some cheesy ass bondo-ed up fiberglass molds that will flex and fall apart and not match, but REAL SHEET METAL...

I am just blown away and look forward to every single pic you guys post...

Thanks so much for taking the time to do that for us...

Rick

When reading through the start of this thread i was gonna ask a question about how the exhausts were going to pass through the frame at the rear loop in relation to the floor, as a pic later on showed the floor sitting right in the middle of where you had the holes in the frame for the exhaust.
I see you changed it though to just a recess in the bottom of the frame instead of passing through it, could you have also raised the floor a bit in the rear to still pass through the frame? or is the way you have done it still kept the exhaust pretty horizontal through that area without having to dip down around the frame.
Just asking a question without going back through the thread to find the pics, not sure if anyone else picked up the change either.

Good eye - we did change the plan for the exhaust as we were building the floor. We decided it didn't need to to encroach on the interior space any more. We changed out the rear crossmember for a different design you can see here:
