Making progress so far.

Regarding the seats, make sure to try and sit in the ones on your list. That way you can see how well it fits your frame, and see how comfortable it is to you. I went thru 4 sets of seats, including the stockers, before I sucked it up and splurged on a set of Recaros. One of the best things I bought for the car.

Just my $0.02

Thanks for that advice. Yah seats have been one of the last things on my mind with all the other issues have faced. LOL I do know that this probably should of been my first priority.

Well car has been at a stand still but is about to be back to rolling here soon. Just got the subframe and some parts from the powder coater. They are going put the subrame back on the car with the front suspension so can take it to the minitubber so can fit the wheels I bought from SW on it. I cannot wait to see the wheels on this car. LOL My motor just got back from the machine shop, transmission is just waiting on the yank 3200 converter which should be here any day, and soon as car is back from mini tubber car will be completely rewired with a painless wiring kit then put back together.







By the way I bought these Fiske from SW he has to be one of the nicest guys you ever meet. Extremely helpful for a noob like me. haha Went to his shop and all you can do is drool. He had ferrari's, lambo's, mercedes, road race style porche's, older pick up trucks super clean with 1000 hp twin turbo motors, multiple old trans am's, zr1 corvette, and many many more of the coolest cars you ever want to see. Just going to his shop checking out his customers cars and his cars was a experience I will never forget in its self.
