A couple more shots of the exterior. After the engine swap, you could see the BeCool catch can through the grille. (these pics were before the swap) I wanted to paint the can black, but John threatened to kill me.

Here are a couple of pics of the interior. The pic on the right was shot an night, and it clearly wasn't completed yet. The head unit was installed shortly thereafter. Audiophiles, please stop seizing now.
