Introducing, "The Droptop From Hell".....

She's still got a lot of detail work to be done... Need to adjust the coilovers, trim some plastic for the huge tires, detail the engine bay, adjust the body kit, install the custom light buckets and projectors, final tuning.

Installed the 1-bar wastegate spring last night...

LOL - I can't find one that fits...

I'm gonna have to keep hacking on my stock one, as I've tried 2 aftermarket hoods and neither would close....

Yep - I tested Blair's.... The support braces run RIGHT through where i need more clearance...

I'm seriously considering redoing the motor mounts or lowering the whole assembly in the frame.

Definitely in the plans - Probably at the end of "convertible season".

Topless, I'll be changing them to red with white or silver lettering, there's some "exterior bling" on the way.
