yesterday I took a trip to Paul's AKA Tha Driver and got the fiberglass doors and hood scoop he made for me. they turned out great. so when I got home I started working on them. I got the hood scoop glassed in and started working on the doors. I have to glass in the nut's so the door skin will bolt up to the door. here are some pic's

I made a lot of progress this weekend but not much to take pictures of. just a lot of fiberglass work the underside of the rear section, the hood vent, the fornt facia,doors and the widebody parts. a lot of the stuf you never see but needs to be done. I have the car striped at this time to get all the details worked out with all the body parts. I will finish the glass work one piece at a time and re fit it back on the car one last time before it gets primer. I will bolt the body all up to fit it all together and do final tweeks. I am waiting for the wheels to make sure they fit to the body also. so if I need to change some things I can before it is to late. I will post more pic's this week.

With that scoop you do have to cut a little but nothing major. As i recall i only cut mine down about an inch or so. I also had to relocate the coolant over flow resevoir thing.

I had already cut mine for the other hood vent I had but yes I will have to relocate the overflow.

here is some of what I have been up to. I have taken the body off the car to finish all the glass work that needed to be done and it is a slow go with that. also I have just talked to Archie and I am getting a set of his VDC hindges for the car. I am hoping to start fitting the body parts back on the car to do the fit and finish so I can get it in primer soon. their is a lot of fiberglass that you will never see that needs to be done to get it right. I am going to make mounts for the fog lights I have and get all the lights wired while everything is off the car and easy to get to. I am also using seam sealer to seal all the weld areas from the chop top to waterproof it incase of any pin holes. I will not be doing the finish bodywork on the car I will get it close and then a friend of mine that does that for a living is going to get the body in shape for paint. on another note BonSpeed said my wheels will be shipping out friday or monday. I can't wait to get them. I will try to get some pictures soon I just did not want to post boring bodywork you will never see.
