The bodywork was done by myself and a friend - Once the car is painted the 2-tone scheme the custom body work should pop alot more.
Here is a pic from a show last weekend where I received 2nd place Domestic
New Interior Pics - its still not 100% complete - more glassing will occur in the trunk plus a custom roll cage & more carbon fiber pieces will be added. Everything was painted "Blazing Copper" which was an accent color of the new paint scheme but was later ditched.
this enclosure took about 2 weeks to make and takes up the complete backseat area
