The remaining pieces of the front sheet metal or test fit along with the grill and header panel.



The crew installed the dual Spal fans, radiator overflow can, and made a custom bracket for the power brake reservoir. This car is running a Hydratech hydroboost brake assist unit which requires returns on the power steering fluid reservoir. The master cylinder would eventually be swapped with a Baer Remaster once they became available.





A pair of II Much vapor separators were installed in the trunk, one for the fuel system and the other for the rear axle. These allow the fluid to expand without emitting vapors.



The front bumper was cut into many pieces, narrowed, and molded to fit the nose in much the same way the rear bumper was.

An Anvil carbon fiber under hood closeout panel was installed, as were Anvil fender support braces.



Ringbrothers billet door sales were test fit for an additional interior detail.





All the body gaps were tightened up in steel for a precise fit. Soon, the crew applied electricity to the car to check function of the lights and all electrical systems.

Later model Camaro mirrors we upfittefd with '90s GM power movements and test fitted to the car.





The controller will live in the center console.



The audio amplifiers were installed in the trunk, with speakers and crossovers hidden throughout the car.

We got the sneak peek at the color with the Baer calipers powder coated to match the blue exterior color.

Same question here. Curious to know where you source the parts, and was it hard to integrate into the car?
