    The quality of this build is off the F-ing chart! Keep up the killer work. Those spindle mount Americans are my favorite front runner bar none. Keep up the killer work.

    So nice I don't want to see it covered up but I just know the rest will reflect the quality of the underpinnings.

    Does the rearend brace have drain holes on the bottom side ? As cool as the holes look, it looks like a water trap to me. Then again, what do I know ? :D

    A smooth firewall done right without the stock body supports. Great craftsmanship with the foresight of details that add up to great project.
