    Ok trans shifter is killer but the one thing everyone is over looking here is the fact you got it hooked to a v12!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Got the rear window wood sorted. I got the wood in a trade, so we didn’t have to make it.

    Yeh, I’ve been toying with the idea of stretching the frame and hood a little also.

  12. So, how did you decide on the position of the shifter? Did I miss some mock up photos earlier?

    Shifter looks great!! I have a feeling it will hit the dash though.

    I measured a stock setup from the front of the engine and then left enough room for the firewall. I can manipulate it around the dash as needed once I get there. I think it will still be aft of the stock setup.

    Did this a while back. I had one nice door garnish, that came with the body. Took a pair of 4-door moldings and...presto.

  27. Much easier to recess the firewall. See my thread “original paint coupe”.

    Started working on the floor. I thought I would be able to use the subrails, but in the end I cut them off and will use reproduction. It’s not the best floor, but it’s clean...I had it media blasted a few years ago.
