Very nice! Keep the pics coming. Is that a Ring brothers razor hood?

Yes, the hood and decklid are from Ringbrothers. They are excellent reproductions of the panels from Razo, really good fitment.

Looks like a sick build indeed. I like the hood and the rear diffuser.
Keep us posted.:thumbsup:

I have seen this in person and this car is going to be unreal. It has a nasty stance and will be one of the baddest drop tops on the street.

Great job on the chin spoiler and rear diffusers!

Sorry I haven't updated this in awhile. Unfortunately the owner passed away unexpectedly.:( The family has decided to continue along with the project so we have been able to finish the bodywork and paint and are now working on concepts for the interior. Here are a few pics of the paint to get you started. I will post some higher res pics asap.

I agree. The color is from Lamborghini it is Arancio Atlas which is an orange with a ton of pearls especially gold.
