Front of the car with the headlight wires run. This wiring will be tied together and cleaned up once the lights are in. It will be hidden from view once the front end is all together. Check out that procharger!

Derek:
I've been out of touch with the project; I've had so much crap to do with my beater/commuter car it's not even funny. That and computer problems.

In any case, I was hoping you can take a shot of the rear-end/underside. I caught the last photo's of it and HOT-DAMN that looks tight under there. Knowing Troy's work, most of the underside could be used to serve dinner on!

Much better in "nartural" light; the fluro's give it a pukey color.

Man that bottom looks sano.

Will this ever make it to something like Good Guy's in the Pleasanton, CA show this fall? I can make that show.

Wow, the attention to detail in that low rear shot is amazing. The spacing of the screws on the belly pan, the exhaust cutout, the gas cap and the line that runs thru the taillights. Really nicely done.
