Lol i need to find someone to drive one of them haha

UPDATE FINALLY

The parts for the rear end of the car showed up...

Chromoly G-Force full spool..This will save about 8lbs of central rotating weight in the third member..Should make a little difference in responsiveness.

My 33 Spline matching 4340 chromoly stub axles were also in the box. This setup is rated for 1400hp so needless to say I shouldnt have any issues(knock on wood)

I also cut off the wheel speed sensor ring

Pulled the entire pumpkin out, and that wasnt an easy job solo lol

While i was at it, also polished all the wheels by hand..I forgot how nic they could look!

I ordered a 3.90 Motive Gear for the rear of the car, then I can have it all put together and throw it back in

I think your build threads leave me hungry more than anything

[Kruizer]

I knew you'd have pics of food, why do I even look at this thread when I'm hungry.... Nice one on the car updates too Note to self, next time I'm in the states ask the dude where to eat....

just spent about 5 hours reading this from the beginning, probably the only build thread I have actually ever read. should have gone to sleep 2 and a half hours ago. need to be up for work in 4 and a half hours. but so worth it. absolutely spectacular work. seriously. I can not wait to see this car "done." and I wish I wasn't on the opposite side of the country, cause I would love to take pictures of this thing. might even be worth flying out for a weekend to shoot it and see it in action.

but I have 1 question, what are you planning to do with the factory fuel filler hole? are you going to leave it open, orrrrr?

means a lot man!

For the fuel door, I'm going to leave it open on the side of the chassis since it will be inside the closed off area in the back of the car, and I am going to cap it off in the overfender
