Ian
thanks, that pic answers a lot of my questions.

 

[A . Alharoon]

some update,
i did not like the aluminium panels look so i decided to use sheet metal instead.
looks a bit like a mono

 

[Simon]

Wow Abdul, that's going to be HEAVY!

Simon

 

[A . Alharoon]

yes , but its good to add a little weight on the front.

 

[A . Alharoon]

almost done panaling

 

[Phil]

Abdul:
Nice job on the paneling, are those painted or some other coating?
That chassis would look great with some new shoes.
Keep posting, nice progress
Cheers
Phil

 

[A . Alharoon]

Phil thanks.
i powder coated the aluminum.

 

[Jack]

Looking good! Keep up the nice work..

 

[A . Alharoon]

Thanks Molleur
i really hate that panaling thing, it consume to much time ,my next car would be a mono for sure.

Is that a Shelby GT500 behind the chassis in picture #2?

I'm enjoying your build thread, hope to build myself a Tornado someday....as I don't have the fabrication skills most of you have, I'll probably order the "GT40 in a box" kit.

[A . Alharoon]

yes its an eleanor gt500.
if you don't have the skills ,go for GT40 roller .but it would cost you double the kit .

Hello Abdul,
How is your build progressing? I am in the area for a little while longer and wouldn't mind taking a look or if you need help with the build, let me know.

HI Tom

[Tom]

Wow, what a difference a couple hundred miles of desert sand makes. I see a mirage to the East....it looks like the Kuwait Concours d' Elegance. See you on Wednesday!

Congratulations, Abdul! You've come a long way since I first saw your car, and with little to no close support made it even more challenging.

I hope your work schedule allows you some track testing time before the temps soon hover around 50C again. Post the in car videos when you can!

Enjoy your new toy.

Tom
