Are you planning on having the engine running before the show or just drop it off the trailer and push it around where needed?

I’ll have it running with a startup tune but it will be in engine break in mode anyway for a while so wont be seeing big boost or power till dyno tuning. After the engine has some time on it.

How heavy of a machine does it require to do the stitching?

Its in. I could have painted a car with all the hrs I have in this dash project. Had to remake the metal dash frame to go around the cage but since I had to…I went ahead and made the dash/frame tie to the car and cage.

He still has to make the leather covers for the rollbar

Either that or you'll have to enter/exit wearing a bunny suit

Nice and tight fit. Getting that headliner in around a 10 pt cage was really fun. Lol!

It's getting close.

If it doesn't have a name, might I suggest a naming thread?
