Base/foundation before inner structure, lip will be constructed out of aluminum.


Aluminum is easier than steel for me...

Trunk updates...

Inner structure supports, looks kinda cool if I left it like a second set of V generators.

Aluminum had slight warping but will all be fixed.

Engine was stripped down and resprayed.... One thing I'm not good at is masking!!! I left the oil pan for dead... Got a new moroso unit for this built 2.0 on the way.



The cover was stripped and painted.... If Wayne and I come to an agreement over at speedster to have it plated then I'll ship it to get the full Monty.


If u kept it green "MIVEC" letters would be machined finished
