I started a thread a while back listed as SRIII project. I posted some pics there. Work has been very busy so haven't been able to do as much as I would like. Did get a chance to prime and spray sound deadener on the underside today. Hopefully can spray finish coat tomorrow so I can do the final setting of the body on the chassis and bolt it on for good next weekend.

Its been a while but I got a few good days in and fixed some cracks around the front edge, took the paint off and smoothed the T-Tops and doors, just about got the door gaps correct, basically waiting for my roll bar and brackets to arrive then tack the roll bar and supports and pull the body. As much as I would like to add a full roll cage it probably will not work because of the location of the hoop and my head. Thanks

still waiting on my roll bar should be here tomorrow. I did get a fiberglass front bumper from Mid America Ind looks great. Not sure what if I will stay with that or go with the chrome. He also makes rear fiberglass bumpers as well. I have my dolly ready and the firewall pretty much done so here are some not so exciting pics

I just received my FIA lens cover and brackets from Jim at Classic aircraft auto and the quality and craftsmanship is first rate. I highly recommend his FIA headlight kit and will say Jim is a great guy, he takes the time to help one out. I will post pics after Christmas

New year, new hope, Jeff Leech from Mid America Ind said my car will be ready this month. I will keep my fingers crossed. I am leaning twds the LSX 454/620hp motor and probably FI. Again the longer I have to think about it the more options I come up with. I have not really received any good feedback on Blue Print Engines so I do not want to be the first one to test them.
If you are still interested in one of our LS427 engines please let me know if you have any questions and I will be more than happy to help.
