This is one of the last shots I took before ripping the driver side strut out. Three middle supports are all tabbed and removable. They really hug the engine and stiffen things up a bit. -
V8 or V10..91 wheelbase or 96.5..2100lbs or 3200lbs..Full racing brakes or stock..a total one off hand built bad ass road car or pay over 50K just to sit in the garage? -
These two doors took me a day to fit. I remove the inner door skin and kicked the bars around to clear the huge seat bolsters. Turned out trick! -
This is a detail shot of my front down bars being test fit before welding. I'm fabing new strut mounts and reinforcing the entire front end structure -
I've now mounted the dash and started work on my Lexan for the rear, finishing up my cage work, body, wiring and she will be rolling in 6-7 weeks!! -
Finally finished the rear and got her on the ground Friday and to my shop to complete the build.... I CAN'T WAIT!! -
Impressive work! I'm in the process of something like that with my car. Post more shots if you have them. -

Nice car! I was at the Knotts/ Zcar event last summer with my girlfriend and we really liked your Z. You've certainly done alot of work! Great build. -
From this you can see the side detail a little better. I welded the rear hatch, removed the drip rails, side markings, and lights. -
Nice looking rear shot. I like how you smoothed it out. Good job! -
Hand fabed and welded, 6061 T6 aircraft alum. It fits perfect, rests at the window and is only 9.5lbs w/Auto-meter guages and wiring. I have all my switches and push button starter in reach. -
I've taken the entire stock tail end out and designed a new one. I got alot of ideas from an early 275 GTB, and the new Corvette -
This is a shot of my engine. I've cut out the firewall and moved the motor back 8 inches and down 1.5. I hope to get better balance -
I've been working on this car for three years, and I'm almost done. This is a front shot of my new body, and fat tires!
