 |
| The mounting plates are as large as IT rules allow. |
The bar will never be seen, but I'm glad it's there. |
A nice shot of the NASCAR bars. |
 |
 |
 |
| The main hoop. | The side impact "NASCAR" bars portrude into the door. |
Cages are a pain in the butt to paint! |
 |
 |
 |
| The blue hose leads from the Accusump to the motor. |
The Accusump keeps the oil under pressure up under cornering. |
A weird angle view of the fuel test port. |
 |
 |
 |
| Even with the interrior out, there is still a back seat! |
Painting is almost done. | The nightmare that we call wiring. |
 |
 |
 |
| OK, this thing is just too cool. |
Oil pressure line half way installed. |
If I ever see a can of gray Rustoleum again, it'll be too soon! |
 |
 |
 |
| The trick little gauge pod. | The custom end-links for the rear sway bar. |
Built to 2004 rules! |

 |
| Just a shot from the other side. | Part of the fuel test port and water temperature gauge. |
The hood is back on... |
 |
 |
 |
| ...and the front window! | The interrior is almost done. | All that's missing is the 100 lbs of ballast. |
 |
 |
 |
| Test fit of all the trim pieces. | We never had the time to get it painted the way I wanted. |
The only thing left was to install the master-kill switch. |
 |
 |
 |
| The next step was to paint it black. |
Yeah, we had to put the door panels back in. |
Finally, the car is ready for the driver's school! |
