There are still plenty of awesome custom builds and cars all around! I’m just persuining my dream build and trying to make my vision real

Got a lot of stuff back from powder coating today. Should match wheels and brakes perfectly. I plan on polishing the letters on both the spark plug cover and intake manifold tomorrow. Radiator should be here this week, and if all goes as planned, will be painting the car next weekend.

Worked and sanded on the bay all day today. Also painted cold air intake wrinkle black, and began to start the brushed metal look on my Exhaust heat shield. Going to keep the stock header till boost and wanted to clean it up a little bit. Going to get some nice titanium bolts for it as well

Cut out the radiator support today and figured out where I’m going to be mounting the All In fab radiator. Also made a custom bracket going from the hood latch to the front crash bar. (Bracket is bolted and removable if crash bar ever needs to be taken off or removed) Latch is now very very sturdy. Going to tig weld tube in tomorrow above steering rack and then we will almost be ready for paint Saturday!
