Have about an hour of sanding left,and then its prime and paint time! Did manage to pull the spoiler off. Not sure if i'm going to leave it off or what yet,so untill then i'm going to temporarly plug the holes.







You can keep yours on because mines spoilerless. Then I won't put on my billet fuel door my cars almost done too both will be on drag trim. I'm thinking as of lately there's more chrome yellow cars on drag trim then any others on here

Most I'm one of the only ones that isn't currently. That's for next season but my car should still run some killer numbers with my combo and suspension setup .... Seems like a lot of sweet rides will be getting finished this year .

Well i hope mine will be! I need a cam,valve springs,clutch,bell housing,and a tune.And still owe the machine shop about 1100 for my block. I bought a cam and lifter set that i posted in prior pics but sold it cause the cam wasent a good match for my combo as i had thought it would be.

Well I wasn't happy with my work. So I started to sand more for a little more smoother if finish plus I pulled the fenders off to start hiding the wireing. Will post pics soon

Went to the machine shop to check progress and to drop off the motor plate. Found out the guy that sold me the block FORGOT to tell me its been decked! The pistons stick out .20! So now im going to trade the owner of the machine shop my block for his block. Dang this sucks! Oh well whats another month,summer is about over here anyways.
