been slacking on the pic's lately. the car is real close. we got the tranny in, driveshaft, tranz mount, driveshaft loop, some new front tires, new struts, the wireing is prety much done, tach works shift light works, wb gauge works, we flushed out the cooling system and put in a little antifreeze, changed a squeeky idler pully, ran a vacume line to the fuel pump controler. rear should be done on weds of this week and we are painting the roll bar on wed too.
there is a good chance we would be going for a little test drive on weds BUT the tranny is not working quite right. looks like we need to pull it out to figure out the problem.
we thought the fuel cell was only 5 gallons but i dumped 5 gallons in and it's not full. it's more like an 8 gallon wich kicks *** since we are thinking about hiting up dragweek with it.

they are going to have a little more money(probably in just their engine) than we have in the entire car. i think it would make for some good hype but they have that covered too by going up against a ford site.

it's alive and well. took it for a little test drive around the block and ended up driving all over the place. a little tuning is all it took and it was running great. car drives nice and strait and smooth. brakes aren't too bad. it's a little loud when the wg opens but other than that it is completely driveable. can't really tell it has solid mounts.
right now it has cheap street tires on it and is running at around 5psi
