cage
really cool "cage" around the inside, that should help it to stay rigid and not flop in the wind

Got Fins?
That looks like its coming along nicely! This is going to be a great one of a kind build!
I do have a question, looking at the rear suspension, and where the frame is, (this may be an optical illusion), but when the rear is at ride height (A-arms parallel to the ground) it appears as though the frame will be very close to the ground?

It's set up for 5-6" off the ground, the suspension is pretty stiff, doesn't have a whole lot of sag. Rhe upper mounts will ride at about that same angle
Thanks for the kind words
Don't mind the pieces of angle iron on the bottom of the rails, I welded those on so I could clamp it to the frame machine

That's currently the plan, I have my eye on a awesome set from coy but they cost almost as much as the wrecked corvette. Haha. I'm leaving my mind open on them maybe I'll powder coat them if I need too

Made some more progress, got my main floor tubes in, the firewall needed to be 3" longer to be where I wanted so I remade it and did a nice recess, have to column mocked up and started on re-arching the wheel wells. Ordering a set if seats to or row in really excited to get. Let me know what ya guys think!

the wheel wells arched look good and stretching the cowl for room is a great idea[

Thank you, it has a ton of leg room now, pedal box will be a little tight with a clutch pedal, but so far it's measuring out good

Still crazy after all these years!
You have a terrific project going. Great workmanship and ideas. Will the cowl extension be under a hood?

I haven't decided yet, I've gone back and forth with hood or no hood. If I did one it would just be a thin top, no sides
Thanks for the compliments, nice to hear for sure

You could always build a hood, then run it when you wanted, take it off when you don't. That's my plan, anyway....
