What manifold are you referring to? The Turbo manifolds, in particular, the one on the drivers side?

Hey gang. I went over to the paint shop to look at the progress on my car today...I have got to say that the paint is looking extremely fine.... I looked down both sides of the car and paid particular attention to the meeting point between each panel...It is perfectly straight. No wobbles, no dips, no blurred spots, no waves...No orange peel. Deep black, like a mirror... .

The hood and front bumper are still being completed. But, I gotta tell you...Looking at that engine bay and that turbo set-up is absolutely astonishing!! The pics just do not do it justice, nor do they even begin to show how mean that damned set-up looks!! As some of you say: "Pure Sex"!!! It is rather stunning to look at. In fact, "menacing" is a good description of how it looks...I simply cannot wait to hear it and feel it run...

Ryan

Well gang, I just got back from the paint shop, and I took a few pics. The paint looks phenomenal...Just a few more days, and I will pick up my car and take it home. It is mostly assemble, the rear fenders are cut and rolled, the brand new OEM front windshield and the brand new rear glass are installed, brand new moldings, etc. It is coming together...What a looooong project...





More to come...

Aghhh.

I've gone through two cars before this one is done, and it's made me want to go back to an SC so bad.

I'm trying to get back into one now!
