quick question...
i might tryand pull off one of those wireless engine bays.
To paint or not to paint?
first before the engine is in the car.....
PAINT right?
now the colour is the hard part for me.
non-metalic but what colour....
im buying a digital camera FOR this project.
The car was built thus far from the back to the front.

ford rear in the car already w/ custom steel axles (rated at about7-800hp) I see traction as the issue at that point :)

I think someone did a racecar like that, ran it in qualifying @ the 24 hrs. Daytona a few years ago, bum fuel pump kept them out of race
