Got the rear quarters all trimmed and ready to go
After about a day and a half I finally figured out where everything went.

Wiring pretty much done. Pretty happy with how it all came out
Ordered some more rennline parts and a Rothsport billet short shifter, should all be here this week.
Dropped all the parts off at body shop except the shell, taking that in on Monday after windshield is out.

Thanks, appreciate it.
Ok so had windshield removed before paint and was dreading the potential rust spots. Not to bad at all.
Cleaned it up
Por-15 for future protection
Should be good to go.

Was making good progress buttoning up the motor install when this happened
Luckily they sell replacement solenoids for $40 and found one local the following day.
Now just waiting on alternator to come back. Since I had the cage powdered I figured I'd have it rebuilt just because.
Tried to fire it up but no spark. Getting a crank position sensor code and a ohm reading out of the range the Bentley suggested so I had to order one of those. Everything else checked out.

Had a small piece of lamin-x so thought I'd see what the lights look like yellow. I'm digging it for now
Car heading off to paint

Keep up the great work, love the last photo.
I also have yellow laminx but only applied it on my fogs for now. I'm afraid that having the headlights in yellow as well will attract police attention.

I love you're attention to detail. The engine choice is not what I would have expected, but what do I know? Keep the pics and details coming.

Nice man. Your car had the rust around the windshield repaired several years ago so not surprised its clean now. Love the build!
