Man that is looking sharp! I love the injector stacks! Did you make them from aluminum tubing?

Thanks Will!  The injector stacks are from Speed City Resins.  You can get them in several sizes.

Awesome!

A few updates.  Cut the hood opening, made the wing window frames and did some more detail in the engine compartment: steering shaft, radiator hoses, cap and overflow tank, mounted the coil, and hooked up the brake lines.  Other little miscelaneous items.  Hope to maybe paint the body this weekend.

Thanks everyone! 

I got it painted this weekend and the first coat of clear.  Hope to get the trim work and decals done this week and then another coat of clear.  Did get a lot of other things done this weekend but didn't take any pictures when I was doing them.  (bumpers/grill painted, window templates made, added a ballast resistor and some misc. touch up).

Thanks so much guys!  Appreciate you all checking in on the build and giving feedback.  Really helps keep me motivated.

Just a quick peek at the body with the trim work and decals done.  Really pleased with the decals.  My first time using STS decals and they were great!  Easy to place and can barely see any edges.   Will be adding a couple coats of clear tomorrow.

I'm hopefull that my next update may be to say that it's finished.  If I can get the time, I'm shooting for next weekend, but there are a lot of final assembly things to do (the windshield glass may be tricky).

Looks great!

[Musclecarbuilder]

It looks awesome, great work.

[Nitro330]

Finally finished it!!!  Pictures are up in Under Glass - Drag Racing.

Very nice.  I would love to know how you did the magnesium look on the front rims.  

[Tony Coomer]

The decals looks so good, nice job laying them down. I’m in the process of using STS my self, great people to work with…

[dragcarz]

Just beautiful Terry!!!

[dust collectors]

Looking sharp!

[iBorg]

Looking at this again.....really nice. What did you use for the front axle?
