Well heres a few update pics they are nothing special but at least show some progress.... got the car back from the cage ,The cage builder did a great job so heres the pics the front end is pretty well all done for now until i get a k member and coil overs for now its 4cyl springs new lakewood 90/10s and some 15x3.5 drag lites



Next is the 16gallon aluminum fuel cell with foam and sender in the spare tire well,Also you can see how the spare tire well is off center in the fox bodies (stupid ford) also the relocated battery with master disconnect and LS1 Plate LOL




Here is my gauge cluster its not 100% done but almost still needs the turn signal indicators as well as the high beam indicator ,the gauges are Auto meter Ultralites all of them are electric except the speedo:




This picture shows the fitment of the roll bar past the stock door panel.....





Here is a picture of the half finished interior ,In this picture you can see the shifter mounted in the stock ash tray hole as well as the tach mounted on the cover for the stock 5 speed opening,and the passenger seat in,you can also get a better view of the roll bar and how it fits in this picture:
