still lots of trimming and other things to get the front end where its ready to paint, but you get the idea.

the fender exits are 100% done but are very close... will cut them a little more flush with the body and add a ring around the hole....

getting pretty excited and hope we still meet our deadlines to make it to Ga!

as you can see he had to cut a few bars and weld others in.... the bars that were cut will be removed, just wasnt a priority at the moment.

getting closer!

Congratulations on the certification. Are the limiters on the shock tower to help with the suspension or the engine movement?
