Quarter panels are on!

Hey Buds –

Just the other day Justin & Kevin at Straightline sent me these pics of the car officially being done at the body shop. When i saw them, i got a little "misty eyed".


I've done all the work on this project myself, with some amazing buddies, except this crucial rear quarter panel / flare work. So - watching it come together and literally take shape is just monumental. I am beyond excited.



Next steps will be:
• Welding in the transmission tunnel bracing and alcove to convert it to RWD / Manual Transmission
• Welding on the front strut tower bracing & subframe mounting bolt carrier
• Adding on the extra exhaust hanger (driver's side rear)
–– Then I need to fabricate the hybrid rear bumper – and after that it can go to paint!
