I got the turbos moved so they don't hit the tires when the suspension cycles. I got the down pipes made for both sides and the driver side exhaust is done. The passenger side is back to the muffler. I also the intercooler and most the tubing built. The bad news is that a big storm came through a couple nights ago and peeled a bunch of the roof off the barn I have been working in. I took my welder and some stuff to friends shop until the roof gets fixed. Hopefully I can back to it soon.

Here are a few pictures of the braces I built for the front fenders. They also are the mounts for the hood, radiator, and intercooler. They tie into the fire wall and then to the front frame.

I almost have all the under hood fab work done now. I need to finish up a few things and then I can pull the engine and get it together and ready to run.

I have finally started on the car again. I am making some good progress. I got the firewall clearanced and a new transmission tunnel built. I have the engine on the stand and have it mostly painted and almost fully assembled. I am going with a th400 transmission that is out getting put together. I hope I can get it going in the next couple months.
