Just about ready to get rolling on this project. It’s a KVA kit that has at some point been updated with C5 corvette uprights and brakes. Has a roller 302 and G50 lsd transmission. I’ve built my share of cars through the years but this is definitely the most in depth build I will have ever done. Lots of updates planned like changing the taillight section to that of the newer 05/06 GT and doing LED lighting everywhere. Probably won’t be of the level the Ruffian GT40 is, but will definitely be different from a traditional build. Will be forsale at the end of it all. Planning to ramp up and get it done by the end of April!

Hi Justin Tom here , What happened to the rear clam shell ? Looks like a 1965 model , with two gas caps . My car has the gas tanks connected , so I can fill both tanks from either side that way you don't need to switch them . If the transaxle fails for some reason a Porsche 996 , or 997 transaxle is easy to come by with a Kennedy engineering adapter plate , and they can handle all the horse you can throw at them . I have access to them and the proto
type hinges for the vent windows , and side view mirrors . Give me a call at 321-292-9005 , from 9 A.M. to 9 P. M. any day . You mean the Ruffian GT40 won't be on your level . You will have a Justin GT40 , He'll be eating crow !!

I think it’s just the angle. Nothing wrong with the clam. My tanks will be connected for sure. I’m most excited about updating the tail section
planning on it
Hi Justin, you have a nice tail . Have you worked with fiberglass at any time ? You will be scratching like a dog when you get in the thick of it .
Have fun and look at the tail of the Gulf car to get an idea of what it will look like when you splice in your rear clip . I hope this helped ?
