Few more pics:

















Made progress with the diff. Have the Moser aluminum centre section in (lightened 3.50:1 gears) with a Wavetrac (http://www.wavetrac.net/) diff. Still waiting on the CV joints before the rear coilovers can be finished.

Getting close!

hi Joe,

If you have time, I'll be in Indy next week at Mecum.
Look me up if you come down.

Thanks Jim! Due to other commitments I can't head down.

Are you going to the Auburn auction?

Yes. They are off of the 2010 ZR1. Pretty snazzy, but finding rims that fit and I like has been a challenge.

My work schedule this year has been crazy -- lots of travel -- so I have not had time to do much of anything. That said, over the next month I'll actually have time at home to work on her.

So, watch for a new thread coming soon to a forum near you.

I am looking forward to seeing your progress on your chassis. My frame will not be in until Feb. and watching your build and others will help pass the time and help with ideas on mine. Yours is looking great.

Joe,

I'm not sure, but I think you and I are tied for the slowest builds

It's amazing how a job can interfere with your off time
