I have a friend from California who is here in Utah doing the body work for me. He comes out usually once or twice a month. Hoping I can learn some of the tricks of the trade but I agree it's definatley a talent. What a long and tedious process.

As the bodywork continues, TJ at Atomic Machine and Design is making me some billet caps to cover the exposed socket head bolts where the roll bar mounts into the package tray. Here is some pics of the cad work and the 3D printed prototype. Two piece design, will be held in place with magnets.

Not much of an update. Body work is progressing nicely. Should have a few pics to post up later this evening. Finally started to organize the garage and take inventory of all the parts I have in different areas of my house. Wegner WAK033 LS front drive, BTR Trinity LS7 intake manifold and a set of Wegner hidden coil valve covers. For those that don't know, running the triple master cylinder set can cause somewhat of a clearance issue for certain valve covers. I wanted to keep the coils on the valve covers so I went with the "short" version from Wegner. Although they look shiney, the valve covers are actually just the raw finish. They are being sent to Ring Brothers to be painted orange along with the block and heads.

About 40% done. It's looking really good. It is laser straight and the gaps are perfect.
