ths just the pre build

that was just the pre build. it was only going to take a year to pre fit everything but, i started a new job and didnt have time to work on it. well two years later it will be done by this spring. Im going full bridge with a gt42 and re-doing the body work with some custom carbon body and dash pieces. me and my boy are going to start putting in the krik 12 point roll cage next week,if the parts show up on time. then im going to start sanding her down for all new paint. dont know what color i wont to go with yet though. it will be white or blue. what color do you guys think it should be.

why are your fuel lines on the side instead of the rear? if you make a hard left turn your not going to have any fuel!

That is what the surge tank on the left side of the trunk is for. There is a small pump that fills it up and is always full.
