Those engine bars look good ... simple is the key!

It's a Flaming River column, supposedly for the Camaro, but did not have mounting brackets on it. The intermediate shaft is also by them, with the right couplers for the steering column: 1''x48 spline end that needed to be hammered on, going to 1" DD as the shaft has a slip joint bottom is 3/4 DD that has the custom Flaming River spline on the bottom to the rack and pinion.

and it's on all fours again... and the Tiger cage is in. She should be pretty stiff.

Yes, the front tires are on the rear, as the old school Boyds rub the wheel wells. I do have a roller for that, but I think the new rims will take care of it.

Have to find 21" tires... looking at Pirelli P-Zeros, if anyone has an opinion?

Also got a new tow rig in the driveway.

Is it the camera angle or is the rear wheel not centered in the wheel well? Looks pushed forward for some reason? Beautiful new truck!

It looks nice, ready to come home?

I am pretty sure that's camera angle.

The truck should tow the race trailer well.

Next project is a Gen 1 for my wife to race.

I had a couple of questions about my build, so I drove over to ask Scott at VRP. While I was there I looked at your car, and I think anyone who had any knowledge of building a car, would be more than proud to own, the end product that Scott has produced for you!!!! Your car looks really nice. Scott has done a really good job.
