If you have tips I'll gladly take them, I already have a lexan front and back glass for it...would also like to find a light wing to replace the heavy factory one...

How do you like the hood.
If you get a chance, I'd like some pics of the underside of the hood.
Do you think it will draw air in from the nostrils or the cowl. I have a super victor and Fast 4150 tb. Just trying to get an idea on how to get the most air from.
My car is gutted also and same seats as yours.

I'll try to get some tomorrow, the vents are definitely functional, the cowl sits real close to the windshield so it don't see it getting much airflow....I myself am using a super vic and 4500 with a carb hat.

So I dug through my shed today and made some room, still haven't gotten the hood out to take some pic for Rene, and found my trans and drive shaft that I will be using until I can swing the cash to get the glide. Cleaned and paint the trans and drive shaft. Both look good as new. Trans is a PTC Th400 with Freddie Brown RMVB and brake. Should be good to get the car going...still waiting to get the car back from my chassis guy...I may have it back by the weekend but I am still waiting on my new chassis harness from RWS....once the car is back I will be installing the new harness and all the body wiring, new battery box, battery switch, and remote jumpers.

Very nice!

What are the overall goals/specs?
Did you have to do a lot to make that cage fit?
