It's been a long few weeks, but the car is finally running. There are still a few minor things to work out, but it's almost ready to drive.

We put the rear 5 lug on and mounted the body kit:













The lights work:













We are giving up on the fiberglass dash for now. It doesn't really weigh much less than the cut up stock dash, so that's what's going in for now.







And yes, we still need to clean up the wiring under there.

Not much has changed since the last update. We installed a catch can, put on the tow hooks and made and installed a water neck spacer tapped for a water temp gauge sensor and a fitting for the expansion tank.









We also shot a teaser video that was supposed to lead to some drift action. Unfortunately, we didnt make it to the event... A series of small problems the day of the event almost stopped us from going, but what ended up stopping us was the freakin tow dolly! The car is too low for a dolly and will require a trailer, so if anyone local has one for sale cheap...

Anyway, here is the video that includes a nice slow ride around the neighborhood instead:
