Thanks for the pics John!! I used the eyeball mount from IDIDIT but I let the upper mount locate the lower mount. I didn't have the headers mounted up yet so I sort'a guessed, we'll see, I think it should be good. Appreciate the pics you sent! Your car is looking great!! I think I might need to buy you a beer and get the low down on how you get your friend to work on your ride while you are away!!! That's a good friend, keep that dude!!

Oh that one's easy. He's my shop foremen, working out of his home garage on my project, for side work.

We're also prepping for SEMA, which is always iffy.

I am going with a TCI interior, considering that they've been doing them for 30 years.

Mostly done with wiring and plumbing.

Time to bring it home.

Now for final body work, fitting the nose, the deck lid, etc.

Then interior.

Thanks Wayne.

I am not sure about the rims/tires from my Z06 Vette, but they do fit.

1 step forward, 3 backwards.

The nicely ceramic coated exhaust doesn't fit with any rear tire I have, including the Boyds that were on the car.

Oi.

May just do turn downs after the muffler.

WHAT? I can't hear you... Betrayal made me deaf and dumb.

I swear, I hate this car.
