Picked the car up from the paint shop today , put the door on to see how it looks on the car

 

[BBRGT]

Hung the drivers door and both lower panels behind the doors



Installed the door latch hardware and the inner door panel



Had a friend anodize the air jack valve mount black

 

[BBRGT]

Starting to clean up the engine compartment , replacing the fuel pumps , coolant hoses , and some of the oil lines .



Air jacks need rebuilding



Cage painting turned out nice



Test fit the right side rocker panel



Fuel cell is arriving tomorrow , once it's installed we can start mounting the remaining body panels .

Another car we have in the shop right now

Gerry bonded in pins on the front corners and fabricated a cross piece between the front fenders with receptacles for the pins .
We then changed the hood pins on the rear to aero catches

Mission in August? Hope so.

 

[Pantera1889]

Those are perfect! Thanks!

Mission in August? Hope so.

Not likely , car won't pass the noise limit at Mission , more likely look for a Portland date in September

Forgot about the meter at Mission.

My 510 pegged it on the induction side of the motor.

Sovren has two more years on noise variance for our Portland events. It would be a good track for your GT.

Have not posted for awhile , busy racing other cars and doing a large home renovation.

Some progress photos of the fuel cell , wiring , pedal mount , subfloor mods , header heat shields and modified fuel cell can

You have obviously been very busy. Unreal amount of custom part fabrication. Looking forward to seeing the finished product and it on the track. Will you take it over to the new course on Vancouver Island?

 

[TO AWSUM]

Wow! Lots of nice custom work.

There's a 2nd new track in s.e. B.C., Area 27, south of Penticton. Should be open shortly. I stopped there last month on 2nd day of paving.

Looks to be a Racers race track, rather than a car club cc track. Hope to visit the Island track and see friends in Victoria right after I get back from Rally 11.

I was at the grand opening of the Vancouver Island track , Peter Baljet and I ran some laps with his Saleen S7R and our GT3 Cup car , it's a great facility and a great club track but I don't think they are ever planning to host any race events.
It is very technical but it flows nicely and is fun to drive , the clubhouse is very impressive and I think they have some big plans for track expansion and garages.
Jeff , you are right about Area 27 , a friend of mine got a tour after the paving was completed and said it looks fast
