      First of all Euro trip.

      And second of all. This build has made me do absolutly nothing at work today besides read your entire thread!

      I wish there was a badge or something that i could give you to show you the appreciation i have for fine fabrication and attention to detail.

      You have made me want to carry on with my car after a year or two of total demotivation.

      Seriously well done sir!!!

      TIP OF THE HAT!
      check out my build

          Thanks! It great to see one persons progress help to motivate others. I know I've been in that exact same position a few times, and more times than not it was someone else's build that helped get me going again.

          Thanks, I'd say I'm definitely not the first person to do a 'proper build', but it's nice to know you approve lol.

                  Lol, fancy seeing you here Heist.

                  As I mentioned in the teaser pic, the pedal swap is not gonna be easy. So far I've had to cut out a large portion of the front driver side framerail, and the clutch master cylinder is sticking into the driver side front wheel well. Depending on how my wheels fit I may end up making a linkage system to move the clutch cylinder up and over. All in all it's gonna be a ton of work, but I've already come this far....

                      I couldn't handle 02faq haha.

                      Yeah I have spent some time trying to get the dimensions right and it seems to intrude on everything. Best of luck! I'm sure you will create some amazing solution. Seriously great build!

                              first off i love old school swaps like this, i didnt think you could fit anything like this into an 02 and keep the inner fenders in.

                              also i hope you're happy with your self, because of this build i just signed up for a welding and fabrication corse at my local community college.

                                Nice to see you're on S/W too.
                                Keep up the good work man!

                                And I'm extremely jealous that you have your own lathe..
