Either you jinxed me or I'm just crazy but decided on further drivetrain mods to keep me busy this winter...so out comes the transaxle again

hey fiero2m8,
those are some great pics you have of the exterior - what a project!

i am going to try talking you into stepping back from the car a ways next time, and using a longer lens. this could help reduce the wideangle distortion in the pics to give us a better idea of the actual lines. will also help blur the background.

Great tip, upon further inspection yes most HQ pictures were taken with 18mm wide angle lens.

Not quite - I am going with a larger clutch 9" vs. 8" and a stronger pressure plate.
Need to custom machine another flywheel for the mod.

Yesterday, I worked on my custom trunk compartment.
First I needed to enclose the front area to keep the wind out and the headlight doors down


I am using heavy guage galvanized sheet metal that is easy to form and won't rust:


Now I am ready to finsh the "trunk" with indoor/outdoor carpet:


Started carpet install in the lower bin cutting 3 pieces and using 3M spray adhesive:
