Fist thing first is fitting the A arm and all suspension. I do not open the wrapping on the A arm because I don't want to scratch them.

A week later, my SGT more looks like a car after I bought tyres and put it on the wheels.

I also do a paneling in suspension area. I do not rivet it yet but I was using some screws to tie the panels to the chassis. When this fitting complete, then I will rivet them. I do this because I'm afraid doing some mistakes, because I don't have a manual to build this SGT. Anyway, I really enjoy in every steps. It was challenging.

As you can see, all the wrapping on the panels are still there, because I don't want to scratch or make the panels dirty.

I will update if any other progress. I expect this SGT will finish in a year or more, because I want to make my GT40 as perfect as I can do. I will try to minimize default when I build it.

So Irvin, you have a 383 cu. in. Chevy with a Ford air badged air cleaner! That's very sneaky :sneaky:

:laugh:
 
A week before Christmas, I was trying to put the engine and gearbox. This is only a dummy engine, just for fitting on the engine bay
