Well...I've never thought of it that way Jeff. My C10 is next, so I guess I could or should rather invest in my own huh?!

Thank you. I chose it without even doing a spray out because it's from Kindigit's paint line. So I had to order it and go with it. I love what you're doing with the Nova as well.

Love that color too! Maybe I missed it - but what did you end up doing for your intercooler for the Whipple?

Thanks...I bought an AutoRad radiator set up, complete with A/C condenser and intercooler.

Beautiful car and you're making great progress so far, thanks for sharing! I tried going back in the thread to find the answer, apologies if I missed it, but would you mind telling me what radiator core support you are using? I looks like great quality and definitely better than the repops that are readily available. Thanks!

Thanks for the comments. I'm using AutoRad...

Nothing big and not much has been going on with the car. Waiting on my buddy to get a few cars out of his shop to be able to get me in and start wiring and plumbing the lines. Nonetheless, tinkered with it a bit the last few days. Tried to measure out the BMW convertible M3 seats. I chose these due to the integrated seatbelt and me having a convertible that doesn't have a B-pillar with no place to mount a shoulder harness. They will be recovered in grey leather. Also, getting the brakes installed too.

I ordered my HRE wheels back in January. It's now heading into June and they've cut the centers in house, but are having trouble procuring rim halves, which they outsource, to finish building the wheels. I've called just about every manufacturer of rim halves I could find and everyone is having trouble getting them. I even called other wheel companies to try and buy them from them and either they don't have them or the few that they do have, they have to keep to build their own wheels before selling them out the door to other customers. This industry-wide backlog is due to Covid and I guess all we can do continue to wait. Otherwise, if anyone has a connection or knows where I can get some, please let me know. I specifically and desperately need 19" step lip, rolled edge in a 5.5" outer. Until then, this is my life as my car continues sitting like this...

I think there is 2 maybe 3 hoop manufacturers in the entire country for all the wheel companies out there. They are all buying from basically the same places.
