Garrett, I was wondering when you were going to post up your progress! What a gem, congratulations that is just a beautiful example, I love the widebodies. Glad you stayed with the C4 platform, I was just at Thunderhill and had a couple discussions with people about how great the C4 was in 2nd gear T11 in getting a jump off the corner.

What suspension are you running? Leda? What rubber are you going to run now that you have a widebody?

Garrett,

Very, very cool progression! And I love your new color preference!

If that is the Schnell (gold) strut brace you have installed, you might be interested to know they now have the new Silver bars and are still a great price. I just got mine and used it on back-to back DE days and really noticed a difference. You could get things all matchy-matchy with your beautiful new(er) Polar Silver Widebody…
Great job! I think we all wish we had you as our neighbor. Reading your posts are nearly as good!
Morgan

PS. I think you’ve created a new avatar!!

Wow.....to think that I used to pat myself on the back for changing the oil!?!?! You have some serious skills.

Congratulations on a top project Garrett - I am SOOOOOOO jealous of your skills. It is my dream to be able to work on my own car but even an oil change is beyond my skills. The widebody looks beautiful too.

Hope you enjoy her on the track

Now that's what I call a project! Great job

One pic shows that you sprayed the tail lights - what are the details of the paint?

Nice job, I wish I had the ***** to pull the motor out and do that work. I will pretty much tackle everything except the motor.
