Thanks all! Here are a few more updates:

Finishing up the carbon insert panels







A little more wiring and finalized the halon system





Hard brake lines are finalized. Just need to get the flexible line and bleed them tonight.





Making the custom door panels



Just a little sneak pic of the exhaust

You know, I NEVER intended for this thing to turn out like this. My initial plan was to throw something together to race with while we make plans for the 2010 camaro. Things just snowballed out of control. Make no mistake, this is a race car and while things are looking like it is a show car everything is purpose built so I can beat the hell out of it like I do.

Granted, I will be the big guy with the microfiber towel and spray wax keeping her clean after every pass! LOL!!
