    Another SL-C finished in Dallas

    Look forward to it. I have a thread that is almost up to date on my build. Was back in Florida this weekend but didn't have any time to work on it which is really frustrating. Will most likely register it here so will be good to talk to you so I can be sure to get it done right.

    Another SL-C finished in Dallas

    Beautiful. I love the race tail. I just moved to Fort Worth and will be going back to Florida at Christmas to trailer my SL-C back to try to get it finished. Have seen there are a few in the DFW area and look forward to meeting some of the local owners.

    Thanks Cam. Going to be home tomorrow so will figure it out then.

    Mike's Build

    I hadn't heard that, but am just about complete with the mounting. They did ship the cable support bracket with the shifter, so I swapped the cables to the new bracket and was just going to mount that to the center rail. None of it was very complicated and it was nice to get out in the garage...

    "new" Superlite Graziano shifter

    Update - the old shifter has been located, along with the brake lines and cooling tubes. Now why would I ever put anything in the attic????

    CamT's build thread

    Love the interior with the full Alpine display. Lots of work and looks like it is paying off. I wish I was as ambitious (and skilled) as you to cut up the fiberglass/carbon panels and reshape them. I am more leaving things the way they came from the factory.

    Progress? The rear mounts for the transaxle and axles are now installed Installed the canards on the front of the body. Also picked up the SL-C emblem and continue to move it around looking for the best spot to mount Working on getting the shifter installed (more details in the forum under the...

    "new" Superlite Graziano shifter

    Started working on the mount for the new shifter. Using a piece of 2x3 tube to simulate the center rail so I can work out of the car. Keeping it offset 1/2" to the passenger side to give me a little more room in the driver's seat. Next step will be to weld up the two brackets then drill the 4...

    Mike's Build

    Been a long time since I was home to be in the garage, and this past week spent a lot of time remembering where I was. A bit frustrating, but finally got some stuff done. Been working in Texas for the past few months so a week in Florida was good for progress. Had a bunch of parts shipped over...

    I think this is progress with the instrument cluster, even though it needs to be remade. I had a rough template for the instrument cluster that has been modified twice as I have made changes to the dash position and the console. But now having all of the switch gear and instruments I figured...

    Door Mounting

    Thanks for all the pictures and advice. I finally got underneath the car this morning and saw the hole in the J hinge. I threaded one end of the door shock into it and found that unless I make some changes in the hinge area the door won't go all the way up - interference with the hinge bolt...

    Door Mounting

    I saw that one, but was looking for one with the factory stock cylinders vs. the linear actuators.

    Door Mounting

    Anyone got a good picture of how the door cylinders attach to the door and to the door jam? Can't find a picture in either the manual or the gallery. Want to make sure I get them properly aligned.

    Stephan's SLC Build Log

    Nice workmanship on your brackets. The top factory brackets didn't work for me either but I ended up making new ones out of steel - my ability to weld aluminum is not well developed yet, so I still fall back to what I am comfortable with. After seeing your craftsmanship, I may need to rethink.

    Mike's Build

    Another couple of days in the garage and feels like I got a bunch done. Started with walking around the car for a couple days staring at all of the gaps, wheel clearances, symmetry, and being scared to death to drill the first hole. But then once I did one, they didn't end. Also was working on...

    Mike's Build

    Thanks for the heads up. Always good to have someone a few steps out in front of me to help give me some insight to what I will find. Right now, I am just using the factory settings to get things square and mount the body. I still haven't decided what to do about the wing. That is probably...

    Mike's Build

    Been a while since I posted, but also been a while since I got anything done. Since my last post, I have done a bunch of stuff that can't be seen like built a relay box under the hood for the lift pump, got all of the brake lines and clutch lines mounted, polished the rear frame rails and...

    New canards

    Works for me Cam. Do you have a pay pal account that we can use to send you money for this when we get to the final count?
