Made some good progress over the last few days and finally bit the bullet and bought a Baleigh Industrial 36in Bead roller to learn how to use for making all of the floor panels and various other panels on the car.
Motor is mounted in the car now and I was able to mock up the factory radiator support and get the hood to open like factory.
Also figured out what size tires i can run. Looks like ill be able to get a 265/35/18 up front and a 295 out back to be able to get traction to hook up. Pictured in the rear is a 285/30/18 Hoosier slick which will probably be a 295 street tire. Due to running that wide of a tire I'm ordering a 1 inch wider rear flare to get the clearance I want.
