Here's my plan, loose core support and fenders as far forward as possible (taped fenders and doors), hang the doors and move it all back shimming up or down as necessary. And if that doesn't work I'll have the painter send his guys over and do it right. :D Oh and all of my IMGUR photos are on here and my acct. isn't public. If there's any particular photos you need let me know and I'll see if they're on my phone and get them to you.

thanks, i just get them from classracer, your build has given me great inspiration.

That means a lot. It's very easy to sit on the couch and watch any of the hundreds of shows on (I'm guilty of it) but a few nights in the garage are what makes me really smile.

We had assumed we would stick with the silver or black theme throughout the build including brackets, seats, mounts, fuel tank and the like, but this past weekend we tossed around maybe something a little different. So, still a matching color combo but just that, a silver/black combo. I did the electronics panel today as a test and Autumn really liked it so this will be our "accessory and bracket" color.

I just like how it's easy to access. I hid my junk behind the glovebox in the Elco...probably regret it if I ever need to work on it again. :o

It's very easy, leaving it as it was just pushing it further toward the firewall a couple inches just to clean up the floor. We are moving the coil from the outside of the firewall to the inside of the firewall behind the glovebox to clean it up.

....and keep that long hair away from the drill press, My friend was literally scalped in high school when his pony tail got wrapped up in the press. Not pretty.

My buddy got his shirt caught in a metal lathe... we reserve our right to die like real men around here! My kids also ride in the back of pickup trucks, on occasion crash (into each other) on scooters. Here's Autumn participating in another of our hobbies, this time with required safety glasses. :eek::eek::eek: :D:D:D

I save a little by "rolling my own" but its still expensive. I don't even shoot any more. too busy doing racecar things.
