Sure is!, I will probably have more time under the hood than I will have doing the body work and paint on the outside of the car! lol  Quote:

Yea I finished the wiring about a week and a half ago. Thats why the dash and everything is in it now. I wanted all that done before I moved onto the body work! |

your car is going to be AMAZING. | You have to see the bottom radiator support he made with an exhaust pipe! Looks killer! Very clever, one of a kind! |

your car is going to be AMAZING. | I didn't know your car was your daily! I love your car, the wheels are awesome. I have the same ones for the 88 except they are 17x8 and 17x9's with the rivets in them. And thanks for the comments, I hope to show it alot next year when I get it on the road. My ultimate goal is to get a magazine article on it. Not tryin to brag sayin my car is totally worth being in a magazine, it would just be really cool and I'd also be able to get my name out there since I do this crap for a living. |

Thanks for the kind words man! I really love what I do for a living. Doing quality work is what I live for. I hate doing things the wrong way. I want my work to look just as good 10-15 years down the road as it does when I finish it! |

Random OT question...
That Cobra wing, does it use the stock holes of an LX style wing? I want to do a cobra wing but have no real desire to Drill new holes, and weld up old ones. |

No it does not. and you have to delete the hole for the wiring from the GT wing and drill a new hole. The wing comes with things to drill the holes for the center support things in the wing. |
