Need a roommate?

Amazing progress as usual. Hard to believe the car has come so far in so little time, let alone the shop. Simply awesome my friend. Damn happy for you!

When I returned from florida its been 12-15 hour days since. No rest until summer! I have about 16 customer cars to build/assemble/swap. Spring is busy everyone waits until the last minute and then want their cars done!

Im trying man! Ive always sat on the sidelines and watched! It was time I step up! It still feels unreal that I have a 7 second car. It was only a few years ago I dreamed of running a 9.

I bought an optic armor rear window. Not sure if ill use it or not. ill probably try to find another hatch to switch it back and fourth.
Not sure why it matters but I drilled and tapped the edelbrock rails from 6an oring to 3/8 pipe thread. I didnt run it out of fuel last year when I ran the pro flo but I dont want to take any chances.

Well I decided to cut a bit more out and weld a few pieces of moly in place which really added some strength back into it.

Kirkey is mounted. So no one can tell me that my honda civic bucket seats are a danger lol.

Now just going to glue all of this Aluminum in and carpet it.

Really excited to get this thing back on a scale.
