    Here is a shot of the rear suspension. It is tucked away but you get the idea. It is a street car not a race car.

    Car is running. Still some powdercoating and finishwork but it runs and it sounds incredible. I thought it was going to be tame and sound weak compared to the old supercharged bigblock that was in there but I was wrong :eek:

    Next step is to get the brakes hooked up along with other miscelaneous tasks such as tying down turbo coolant feed hoses. Then back it out for its first drive. Yes it is a true street car. No trailers.

    The last thing is to get Cal tuning it and bother Dusty to help us get the suspension dialed in. Wait it is just a stock rearend according to some of the einsteins out there :cool: :rolleyes:

    The one picture is of the pre fabricating stage. Done inside of the garage as was the whole car from start to finish.

    The car was sold as a roller. The complete turn key twin turbo setup with just start up time on it is for sale. Other obligations along with losing interest led to the sale of this project. If anyone is interested PM or email me for info.
