Started the passenger side. Had to lower the mechanism. I'm using 69' Camaro mechanisms with the Lokar cable pull and the Ringbros lever. Steve Lenning (Carbon Camaro) gave me the mechanisms about a million years ago!
Had to open up the inner door structure in a few places to make room for the cable and mechanism so I added a few reinforcements so the door pull would still be solid.
Also ran the cable through a couple little setups of a teflon bushing anchored with an Adel clamp.
The Lokar cable pull comes with a pulley. It all comes together very well and is a solid and super smooth open.
Now the fun begins, foam and fiberglass! The MDF ring is just a spacer to space out the door panel to make room for the speaker and speaker grill. Will make sense in later pics.
120mph speedo?
I think someone underestimated this rocketship. Lol

WHAT gauges are those? SpeedHut ??? Those look great.
Well played!! LOL.
Yeah, struggled here. SpeedHut just came out with these new gauges and the only option they have right now is the a GPS speedo that maxes at 120. They will do the trans input coming soon but I needed to pull the trigger now so I can take the next step with the dash. Guess I'll have to stay away from 4th gear!
Have the sill plates mostly inked, just the overall shape....lots more to come here with these. Needed them placed to insure the door panels fit. Boring but important.
