Still working on the tunnel, Johnny ordered the ignition box, coil and crank trigger this week, should be here today or Monday. He also picked up the carpet. Next will be brake lines, fuel lines, wiring, alignment, scaled, fueled up and bangin gears!

The car started out as just a cage.
One year later.........
full 12-point cage plus some extras
mini tub
built 9" Moser rear end
Front and rear Strange adjustable Coil overs
Custom rear floor and fuel cell mount
Strange Brakes
Shortened A-arms
Drop spindles
Motor plate/mid plate
Sliding Transmission mount
Removable tunnel
Custom solid link clutch pedal assembly
Modified bell housing
Candle stick clutch setup that we waited on for 5 damn weeks from G-force
Custom built 1 7/8 headers and 3" X-pipe
Chrome moly steering shaft assembly with removable steering wheel

now working on brake lines, fuel lines, and mounting vacuum pump
The only thing that has not changed on the car is the shell.
Everything else has been modified or changed in some way.
The car will be out very soon, so be patient. :bigthumb
Hope that clears up a few things ;)

its all good 89coupe... no need to feel sorry for me... rob & i are on the same page...

i've come to learn that this stuff dosen't fall together overnight. even though this whole build has taken a lot longer than i would of originally wanted, i've come to also learn that it would be harder to find a guy better than rob to do the work....like rob said, we've added a lot of stuff from the original intentions...the car will be done when the car is done period. i will just be glad to know when it is done, it will be right which a lot of cars out there can not say the same...:bigthumb
