I'm about 50% complete with the re-assembly of the freshly painted 1999 car. The car looks much better painted; however, it does tend to highlight the dents in the frame and some of the nasty welds. There are several 'lightening' projects that need to be done before re-assembly can be completed (Front Brake Rotor Hats, Front Wheels and Steering Rack)
Here are some pictures of the progress:
'07 Re-Build Update
I'm going to re-cap from the beginning on this car, since my first post didn't give a lot of info on where we are starting from on this project. It's a real pleasure to get to re-build a car with this pedigree. The plan is to re-build it just as it was, no need to mess with what works!
The car, in terms of the chassis, is all still together, but there is still a good bit of work to get it running again. Here is a list of items needing to be replaced or rebuilt and the completed items to date:
