Ahhh I remember when my car looked like that .

You can make this bar removable now in SFI rules 25.1E and 25.2 and pull your transmission from the bottom .

Very Impressive! Did you by any chance do Will's Barracuda a few years ago?

Mean Green you are right you can make it removeable to take it out the bottom. For me it is more trouble to jack the car up high enough to get it out the bottom than it is to hand it out the door.
Hyper Pak yes I did rework Wills car quite a few years ago.

On my car finishing a few details over the holiday and its off to the powdercoater this week!

Got the chassis back from the powder coater. Having the body blasted and primed before re-installing. Starting final assembly.

I do believe the 9" is up to the task.
Very nice work. If your attention to detail follows through the whole job , this one is gonna be purdy !:D:D

Allow me to reiterate. :D
The brake line routing gave me chills. :prayer:
Absolutely top notch work.
This is gonna be automotive jewelry.
 
Thought I would add a few pics of the work in progress. Got the body back from media blasting/epoxy primer. Plumbing and wiring going on along with headers. A few more weeks and we will see what it weighs and how it runs!!!

just went back and read the first of this thread. I`ll lead off, 7.90 e.t. first full shot .:coffee2:
 
Thanks for the compliments! I do chassis work on the side to support my racing. I'm using the 1.76 low in the trans. Haven't decided on rear gear yet. If under 2400# I'll go with 4.11, over 2400 4.30. Hoping for 8.0's , depends on the weight.
 
When I started this project my goal was to renew my license, get a grade point at a division race and get back on the national event circuit as early in the season as possible. For me it meant I had to make the division 1 race at VMSP this past weekend. well we made it. There are still some details to take care of. I will run it primed for the remainder of this season and worry about paint over next winter. We only got to make a couple runs before the rain set in but it gave me important info, mainly the converter is too loose. Here are a few pics. If I can figure out how to upload some video I will do that. Second pass was a 8.66 @ 154 mph. Will go 8.40's with right converter and a little tuning who knows!
