bolted up all the body panels the other day trying to get the hood lined up and ready to pin on.
Turns out VFN trimmed the front way too short for some reason. There is a good 2" gap between the hood and the bumper. Thats just not going to do, so I called and raised hell.
My new hood should be here next week. So I'll continue to wait. :(

I guess the cut it three times and it was still too short! LOL
I really like the window net...... gives me a few ideas for mine....
Keep up the good work Matt, It is going to be SWEET!:bigthumb
One step forward, two steps back. Gotta love it. I'm liking the paint in the sun though!!! I'm liking the progress, I'm sure all the smack talk has you motivated!!!:bigthumbQuote:

I know...I had to walk around the shop beating on every door till you opened lol.
Are you going to mini tub it?
naaah...you dont need big tires to go fast. ;)
Well at the point you have the car this far apart, it wouldn't be that much work, and just because you can fit a big tire, doesn't mean you have to use a big tire.
true. but I still want to run Real Street. the class requires stock framerails and all that jazz.
maybe down the road sometime. ;)
Great progress Matt!! paint seems inevitable now:lol:
Gotcha, I didn't know that.
Everything looks REAL good Matt can't wait to see that thing go down the track on a nice sunny day.....lol....
I can't wait till all this painting bullshit is over!! Nice job on the strut tower re-inforcements (nice touch) Lets get to the heart of the car. Lets install the dick and the balls. Can't wait to help you go fast again!

The car looks awesome! Too bad I never have the time to come and see it in person. Let me know when you start bolting stuff on, I can actually help with that!;)
Matt everything looks really good. You are going to be the only one to work on it when it is done, everyone else is going to be afraid to touch it!:D
