Well done Sir! Superoffenturbotittengeil!

Thank you!

Still a few things pending: Side mirrors, front lip spoiler (in black), Carrerra graphics (in black, and sitting in the shelve waiting for the paint to cure a few more days before we do the install), side front fender grill inserts (he is doing that today), adjust the exhaust tips (but the rear bumper will need to be modified once we install the final muffler, so for now it will stay like that).

The plan is to bring it home today and finish the interior and clean the fuel lines to get the engine running again.

A few more photos:

As soon as I get home I will continue with the cleaning of the fuel system. Check the fuel pump and get it running again. Then it is time to finish the interior.

Baby steps... installing the gauges...

Trusty photos...

Let's install the steering wheel... and those da$#%^$% time people always forget to place everything back where I left it...missing one of the steering wheel botls (The Twilight Zone reference for those youngsters, lol...)

Decided to go with a lower dash from Rennline. Should be here this week. Ordered the one in black.

A few more photos from today. Keep in mind that we took the car from the shop to get it running again (done), and to install the interior (in progress).

The outside stills has work pending. Pending mirrors, fuel filler setup, wiper arms, mesh in side vent of front fenders, front lip spoiler, Carrera script, and those tapes you see are areas that need attention from the paint guy, need to finish fitting the headlights (electrical is done but I need to redo the brackets that holds them in place). So still a work in progress.

The plan is to finish the interior, finish fitting the headlights and then drive the car back to the shop for the stuff pending. Black trim for the headlights is done and I have them, forgot to put them on for the photos.

I need a decent tag frame and install the tag lights (or maybe find a tag frame with integrated lights).

Could not resist posting one before the work began...

You are stoked!

Very much so!!! Just in case, the guy in the previous photos is not me... that is Angel who is part owner to this car. He got tired of seeing the car in the garage without any progress and got a guy to work it and paid for it... I was going to give the car to him and he decided to make it a split ownership deal, cool! :cool:

This is me:

Had to add this to the lift to avoid any accidents when opening the doors, ouch! Foam pads that I got from Griots Garage... cut to fit.

Nice to see it nearing completion!! Been a long time coming for sure:cool:

Super Cool build!!!

I LOVE that color!
Was going to ask if you had gotten a haircut...

On another note... Rennline lower dash is here! Came in today! Need to drill the holes for the headlights switch and decide what other switches will remain...

And yes, I know I need to clean the inside of the car and all the glass... to be done once all the work is done :)

Great looking car
