Nice build you've got going Casey! I expected a bit more frugal build from the intro. Black looks nice.

Nice parts list coming together there, and a nice looking garage in the back ground as well.

Thanks! Here is a photo of the floor cut up. We have way more cutting yet to do. I bought a Miller Plasma Cutter recently and it was well worth the money. The car won't have a back seat so we will have to come up with something for that area.

Typically with this chassis the body fits over it with very minimal cutting, but I wanted to take it a little further even though it would have been great the way it was intended. Normally only a few inches of the rear footbox area has to be sliced for the rail to come through the floor, similar to how you Detroit Speed guys cut out the floor.

We will end up getting rid of the original frame rails because they are really not necessary with the full frame. I just ordered Detroit Speed Deep Tubs which will be installed with some additional new metal work.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

WOW. Awesome parts. Love the wheels.
I like the hidden fasteners best as well.

Can you post some pics as how the Shwartz chassis integrates to, or around the factory rear frame rails?

I looked all over their site, but cant find any.

Thanks!!
