Well.......I guess I shouldn't have spoken so soon because, once again, Rodger and crew blew me away with the rear part of the cage. In my previous post I had said that I didn't like how it was done but having seen it in person, I have to say, it is right on! (I hate it when Rodgers right! Dammit!)

Here's where we're at so far:

Front UCA Mock-Up Drivers Side


Front View


Trunk Cage Assembly fleshed out!


Ironworks got the tailpanel installed and is just waiting for the 2 rear quarters to show up so that those can also be replaced. After that it's time to get the minitubs going! Can't wait!!!

Holy Crap man!! First time I have seen this thread, and all I have to say is WOW this thing is amazing. Has to be one of the sickest Nova projects I've seen. The fab skills are mad! Sorry for not viewing this before, but I am glad I did now. Amazing work, please keep us posted.

Thank you, but my car can't compare. Mine doesn't have 1/1000th the fab work that yours does. It's all bolt-ons mainly.

WOW!!! It looks so different with the hood on!



Front UCA Mock up! Me Likeeeee!!!!



Quarters came in so, hopefully, we can get them on next week!

BTW, I've gotta give a big shout out to the guy that has been doing most of the fab on the car! His name is Brycen. He has also been instrumental in the design along with Rodger! I guess it's true what they say! Two heads are always better than one!
