Here is a small update... We have the fab work pretty much completed on the radiator to bumper filler panel... We still have a few pcs in design to machine but we are close.. Notice that we have a billet spring plunger in the center instead of just a spring... All the work kind of matches the bumper to hood beak..



We also started doing the back seat in the car to get a feel of what we need to do to match the console.. I think we will have to alter a few things.. JCG now has an in house interior guy.. That means my builds have to no longer go out for sub-contract work...

We are currently on the final stages of the body work.. Hoping to have the car in the paint shop in a few weeks.. As parts are coming off they are getting powder coated ready for assembly... The SEMA thrash will be in full force in Sept..
