One thing I discovered rather quickly is once you take all of the pieces off the car your new 24 x 24 garage fills up fast i am use to this since most of the cars I have built in the past 40 something yrs were done in either a single car garage or a cramped two car garage
 
Ok so spent the day finally finishing the heat shield and put the sound deaden on the other sound of the fire wall now it’s on to running’s the ducts for the defrost and vents plus finish up powder coating more parts while I wait for all the electrical systems to show up

Ok so finally after about 2 months my Infinity Box System showed up today so on to wiring the car, I spent some time today detailing the engine and just waiting for my new Raptor Turbos to come in once mounted off to California she goes to have the Engine Management System installed and then Dyno to make sure everything is working properly before I reinstall for the last time. I also spent some time working on the center console which I will finish up with an aluminum bezel and leather or cloth boot

Larry, now that you've polished it up so nicely it would look great hard anodized black or gray.

Wiring so much fun there is only so much room for the fat man to get under the dash I thought at one time today I would not be able to get back out and my wife would fine me three days later.
