Gonna toss up a few photos while I'm inside warming up. Should be heading back out shortly, I'm going to eat dinner first though.



Fun


Hey, 39lbs of wiring (but that's less than stock would be as I had already pulled the engine harness and the harness to the rear of the car is still sitting in the hatch).





More updates coming in a few hours. Should be pulling the tar I didnt get last time off the floor boards and doing more underbody stripping.

Damn it Mike - you make me feel like a slacker. June 2-3, Nelson Ledges - no excuses! I am looking forward to seeing it in person and getting a ride.

Registration opens April 1st - I'll email you the reg form. You're a cruel man bumping my thread - I'm hoping that it will fade back into obscurity, although I should make some progress with the suspension this weekend.

Mike, will you be rerouting the brake and fuel lines, or will they be run as stock through the wheel wells? Just wondering, without the fender liners, if the brake and fuel lines would be more susceptible to damage if a tire blows out or you pick up some road/track debris.

Jim, the short answer slightly rerouted. I've blown a tire before (and havent run the liners in 4 years) and not had an issue.

Skip cleared it.

I'm embarrassed,

I can't even change my own oil without breaking stuff. You disassemble, cut up and rebuild one, in the garage, in the dead of winter. Walking uphill to and from the garage 10 miles away, in 80 feet of snow, with only your breath to warm you up.
