I just have to stop in and tell you how much admiration I have for people that have the patients to do tube bending. I dont I found out... So I called a buddy of mine that builds Indy and Champ cars. He is currently in my garage bending pipe. hehe And I can tell you that it looks awesome. Should be done with it tomorrow. Then Im onto wiring and a few more pieces coming back from the polisher and anodizer. He wants me to do another car in complete carbon fiber as thats his specialty. Im happy with Jim so I'll be sticking with him for the remainder of this build. While here he has given me a few more ideas that I can maybe add to the car. Well see as it is its so over the top in the way it looks. You guys will be amazed, I hope to do you proud Chris.

I just picked up a 16' aluminum car hauler as the going back and forth to fabrication, paint, engine builder etc... borrowing from my buddy got a little too much. Room for more projects on there too!

Intercooler in
Turbo in but waiting on exhaust from the polisher
Seats brackets are all fabbed (waiting on the seats to come back from the polisher)
Brake lines going in
Clutch line going in
Air jacks are all in just need to be plummed (next week)
Fuel lines need to be plummed (next week)
Electrical (next week)

Once the lines are in a take some shots for you guys

I know I know Im getting there. Maybe tonight or tomorrow.

Im caught up in a gang of wires at the moment. But the custom direct port nitrous is done though and looks awesome! hehe

Decided to go hard line on the jacks too so its taking a bit more time.

WOW! it all sounds so simple, until you see a pile of wire on the floor all needing to go somewhere.
Keep it up, we know you can do it.

Just wondering........ How are you going to mount your int. cooler? I can see some thick pipes going up but where do they go?

The speed and perfection you have, I'm sure you'll have it finished in two weeks. The force is strong within you.....
