Used some of the ideas discussed in the forum and just completed adding strength to the rear shell and solving the exhaust heat issue. I fiberglassed 1x2 wooden strips and placed sticky shield as you can see from the picture. I then used aluminum sheets and created what I believe will work great.

WOW, I need to do more research. The last thing I want to do is mess up the spider. Thank you for your valuable comments.

Can anyone provide the best foam type sealer to inject? between the fiberglass panels in the spider??? I looking for a product I can use to provide rigidity and soundproofing if possible. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Thank you, I reached out to Mark and I will contact Tornado.

Does anyone know where I can purchase reproduction Hartwell latches or a nice alternative? I understand originals are hard to find and very expensive. Thanks

Steve a GT40 body just went up for sale in eBay.

Hi Steve, from your picture I noticed you mounted your parking brake. If fully installed, could you send me pictures so I can have an idea on how to install mine. Thank you

Rob the wheels are from Vintage. Fronts are 17x8 and the rear are 17x12.5. I ended adding 3 inch flares to fit the rear tires.

The angle cuts and subsequent union maintain the same regidity of the sway bar without compromising the strength.

I was not able to find a steel pipe to properly fit the 30mm size sway bar so I cut a 6 inch long, one inch diameter steel pipe down the middle and sandwiched it. I then welded together filling in the gaps. Measure your sway bar because the C5 sway bars came in different diameters depending on...

Thank you for the compliments. For the sway bar all you need to do is cut 9 inches (angle cuts) from the middle and then weld together using a steel sleeve for strength. Don’t need to do anything to the ends.

Joel thank you. Steve the front bottom panel I stole from your build. The sway bar is from a Corvette front C5 Z06. I cut off 9 inches for a perfect fit and used the original mounts.

Suspension, brakes, front radiator and cooling done. The engine and tranny was installed yesterday with ease.

Hi guys, I’m also working on an Active Power. It was delivered on the 5th and just finished installing all new bushings and ball joints. The New brakes and rotors should be arriving this week and installed on the weekend. Steve you are doing a great job and thanks for your pictures. I use them...

Steve, I like what you did adding the front bottom plate giving it better support and strength. How did you attach it to the existing two supports. Thanks

Very nice, all you need to do is dress her up and you are halfway done. Great job.

This past Saturday I was at Chris’ shop making final preparations for this weeks delivery of an amazing wide body he did for me.

Very nice, great power worth the wait.

Rob, my crate Boss 302 is not very aggressive and equipped with a mild cam. I hoping it will work and do agree with Borlas excellent customer service. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Steve, I used an aluminum paste polish and a rag on the tranny. Before polishing it I used my pressure cleaner to remove most of the dirt and stains.
