so got the windshield init was a PITA. we had it up in place wit hthe rubber bumpers in and stuff. and it still slid down a tinny bit. so we are going to do some touch ups too it.

and we put the passenger side fender on for good.

and some better pics of the finished engine.

it started storming. and my dog got scarred and was tryign to get i nthe shop.

the hood and pretty much the whole car is ready for the last layer of primer. then it will need wet sanded. then it can be painted.

i drove the car in place again today.with the back wheels on. and the thing was building boost with the tires in the air. sounded like a freaking beast. man i cant wait to drive it. its going be so tempting to floor it when i pull out on to the high way lol . but i will restrain my self . maybe.

Wow man, thats some nice fcking work. I never realized you put so much into it, i only saw it on the elite's thread and though it was just some primered sileighty with wheels

As for that color, thats gonna be sweeeet, but id say keep the hood blue, just the roof black

haha yeah. that will be the cool part about just driving around rocking primer fora while. it will really be a sleeper.

as far as the hood not being black. i am not going to do it all black. it will be sweet and custom how we are doing it. i think every one will agree that it will look nice when painted.

well got the car in the last layer of primer. at least most of it. and i got alot of wiring done. as soon as i am done with this update i am going to head out and edit that video for you all to see.



i wired up my head lights.

turned out good.

i fixed some other wires that were held together with butt connectors.and i finished wiring in my gauge lights.the one on the far right is kinda orangish colored. but it is fine.

and my dad got most the body work knocked out on this fender today.

allright i am out to edit.
