So sick man ! Cannot wait to see the finished product !

 

[dangerzone]

I hope to be finished by the end of summer but, i really dont have a deadline. I plan to put eveything together, running and driving, take it all back apart, smooth the inner fenders, and paint it, inside and out, reinstall the drivetrain. i will use the floor pans from the gt500s so the E brake, console, shifter, seats and all bolt right up, also the engine firewall, for the pedals and such. should look neat with gt500 interior, and a 700HP+ gt500 engine and 6060.

Wow that is hot, I want to see the finished product tomorrow and if not this whole thing will be considered an Epic Fail. lol jk This will take some time to get finished but it will pay off.

 

[HOLYWD]

It will be bat shot fast
Just some expensive DR/s and slicks lol

Wow I can't believe it fits so well, its going to look OEM by the time you are done. I wonder what it will weigh once its all said and done?

 

[dangerzone]

im curious to the weight as well. I weighed it on revco scales, with 302 and factory everything, ac, the whole 9 yards and it was 2860. i know the gt500 motor is around 650 with KB. another 100 for tranny, should be close to 3300lbs, but i will reweight it once completed for sure.


How the hell im i gonna hook a coupe with a 700lbs motor on the nose????????LOL

 

[HOLYWD]

Looks like it'll come out pretty clean when finished! Way to think outside the box and have some ingenuity! Keep it up!
