Update! Finally had some time to take better pictures! This is a good, honest car! Keep in mind I did not bolt down/adjust the bonnet, just put it on for pictures so fitment is not ideal in the pictures but certainly can be fine tuned.
I am a true professional and everything on this car been done in that manner. No back yard mechanic work here.
She now runs and drives and is a blast, very fast!

What needs to be done...
- Interior needs finishing. It needs door panels and rest of the carpet kit. A new partial carpet kit is included.- Headlights and tail lights need to be wired up (it is all mocked up, just needs the wires run)- Fuel gauge is not functional at this time.- Speedometer is not functional at this time.- Misc. fit and finish stuff that is expected with a project like this.
This car should have a very strong power to weight ratio similar to modern performance cars as this engine produces more than double of the factory engine and also weighs quite a bit less as it is all aluminum vs all iron.
