Dude that is tight!!! There is a big recess in the floor pan which is where the original goes, but it might exit where the rear door would be on a sedan. It will be tricky though.. thinking-hard-smiley-emoticon

Was it a Targa Tasmania Dennis?? or on a track. ?? THANKS too mate There were two races on, one was in Australia and one in Tasmania. The Aussie race said it was F1 but it was sports cars and the Taz race was a road race with sports type cars. I watched the Tasmanian race because I thought you might be watching it and I was going to remember which one it was but of course I forgot.

Now for the last of the fabrication... i hope... I ran into a drama with the engine not wanting to fit under the hood, so i had to cut a huge hole just to get it to close, and now it's time for the scoop, it's HUGE, but had to happen . It's finally got to get easier.... and YES, the rear wing is on backwards in the pic oh_jeez-1018_zpskf8ctjic

Cheers boys, Well, i walked into the paint room still with NO IDEA what color i was going to paint it........ I went through all my colors, but the only thing that stuck in my mind was somebody's previous suggestion of ORANGE.. Which will look awesome with the black.

Thanks guys, well, i thought there was too much orange on the hood, so i blacked some of it out. Sort of takes your eye away from the size of that scoop now.

Man this looks great, I love the paint.... smileys-painting-009432_zps0b513ffb icon_shoutout_zpsg7nrfmdc Bonnet scoops huge, which it has to be, but do you need a scoop ? That's a cool engine to leave on show ! ! Just a thought, I'm sure it will all look wild once finished !
