This project is my latest mess. I'm about a year into the build and just figured I would show everyone what I've done so far. I've done all of the fabrication work myself and a friend stretched my quarter panels and painted my roll cage. What does everyone think? The car will be driven on the street and I will compete in NMRA True Street. If everything goes according to plan the car should go Mid/High 8's easily.

The thing is, I wouldn't be happy if I bought one already done, I would be changing things to make it my own. So what the hell. I have a 96 GT vert to drive everyday. I expect This project to be done some time next year.
 
Bringing this back from the dead.... Just funny to see how much things have changed and my oh my how my goals have changed...

Any of you other guys/gals have pics from your projects of years past that are still going?

I wish someone had a parts list i would piece together a fuel system i am just intimidated by it because i have never done it .
Well, I bought my stuff here and there. All used except the pump. My rails and crossover hose are old school cartech as is my FPR. I bought lucas 75lb injectors from a member off this forum who is no longer around.. misc -AN fittings from jegs, stock main lines and a stealth 340lph in tank pump. My tuner says that'll support 450-500 rwhp all day long, and If I step ia little I need to run 1/2 lines from the tank to the front. As far as making lines, I just buy braided SS hose from Jegs or Summit, along with hose ends in whatever -AN size I need, and build the hose. It's really straight forward. If you have questions pm me..

I really just need to sit and draw it out on paper so I have a parts list to get it all done
