Carrera 3.0 Hotrod build takes a turn

[KNIGHTRACE]

Looks EXCELLENT

[CarlP]

Gorgeous car. I can’t wait to see it finished!

[Macroni]

there is a great freedom in building a car specifically to suit you.

[Geronimo]

Wow! I am stunned by the amount of disposable income people have. I cannot fathom dropping $100K+ into a car, just mind blowing. I am clearly lacking.

[Sheck44]

Thank you everyone for the great comments, Nathan and the team at CC Speedline have surpassed my expectations on the level of detail and craftsmanship on the car thus far ... again BIG thanks goes out to the guys

Cannot wait to see this start to come together now !!

Cheers
Steve

Quick decklid hinge modification for second shock

[Sheck44]

Coming along, body panels assembled and threw the wheels under to see how she will come together

Now I see this car now has a ducktail but in this one it has an early carrera tail sans rubber. Where were you going to get a replacement rubber or did the tail come with good rubber already?

Sorry guys just been insanely busy. Just barely
Enough time to send Steve some pics. The car will obviously be polished prior to assembly. Just letting everything dry up really well and get all of the mechanicals out of the way.

[Sheck44]

It's official, I've booked flights to LA for us to go and meet Nathan and see the car in person last weekend of July !!

Cannot wait to both meet Nathan in person and see this car ... SO excited

Cheers
Steve

[Sheck44]

LOTS getting done ...
BTW, happy 4th of July to all you guys/gals south of the border !!

Guys ... Good morning all
So, just got back last night from Los Angeles to see the car and meet Nathan and all I can is WOW.
To say that the car in person was way beyond my expectations is an understatement. Not only is Nathan an awesome guy he obviously has major OCD like myself and the attention to detail, quality, fit & Finnish is superb.

Here are just a few pics that detail the quality of this build ... Keeping in mind the car has NOT been cut/polished yet
