Weekend update,

Neil has been anxious to put the rear end back in the car. After we got the floor all buttoned up Neil painted the floor bottom and we FINALLY put it back in. After a quick shock bracket adjustment we rolled er out for some pics and floor clean up! Here is some pics! I am sure neil will add some pics also.

This thing is going to be awesome! after seeing it down on all 4 again, Neil and I are; to say the least........excited!

Nolan basically nailed it but we got more done then just that we also got the intercooler all mounted, rear suspension holes opened up for 1/2" bolts mounted the big radials on these rims just to see if the offset would work, got the cage to bare metal and also cut out some more brackets that did not need to be in the car.

Overall I could not be more happy with how things are going together, hopefully we will have it in primer before too long!

Now on to the fun stuff PICTURES!!
