Is this car also going to be entered in shows? I wouldn't put rug into my track car but I'm lazy about finishing touch items.

well i got wat will probably be the last of my work for this break done this morning. i most likely wont be home again till school is over in the beginning of may unfortunately my truck took up too much time from me. but the ls1 front brakes and spindles r on and the car is rolling again the stance is kinda sick pics dont show it like it is in person. i came upon a small problem for some reason the front studs arent long enough for the skinny greg weld front wheels so thats another thing ill have to end up changin here's a few pics ill update if i get anything if not i wont be in here for awhile:cry:

Hey man, its looking better and better. Hopefully you'll get it finished pretty soon after you get back home. I had to sell my Camaro so no build for me for a while. Good luck with school
