Re: 3+ years in the making

got my lazerd skin in, and the gun to spray it...



cleaned up the firewall and redid some small things, as well as groudn down all the welds.... pretty much all thats left it so do some small sheetmetal work in the rear, make seat mounts, and seatbelt mounts, and do lots of body work on the trans tunnel and the firewall...... then i can lizard skin the underside, and then start on the frame...


this is the shot pavement will see..
