    Chad, great looking build.
    Looks like you've made a bunch of progress. When is the engine, wiring, coolant lines, etc going in?
    That stuff took me a lot longer than I estimated.
    But, I work slow

    Well placement is already set for those parts, so soon as the frame is finished painted the engine will get set in there and the shell also... then I'll figure out where the wiring is going, thinking of running a 5/16" line down the driver side rail for the wiring, and pluming it into the shroud down low, it'll only have 4 wires in it anyway.
