Cut the firewall off,getting ready to set the engine,most of the rust is gone now,but then again,so is most of the car.I'll probably start bending the cage before I fab the firewall back up.Ron

What strips?Do you mean the stripes,because they are what caught my eye when I bought the peice of crap,sexy aren't they.Ron

Set engine in ,sets about 5" into firewall.Still need to find a trans though.If I scrounge up some pedals,and a trans this thing could be moving soon.Ron

Very awesome build , but $5,000 is an unrealistic amount . But maybe you know something I don’t lol. Going to be nice when done either way!

Amazing job. Especially considering it started with a $400 car!
