Default All but done outside (pics)

Took some photos today of the 65 and thought I would share them. Its all but done on the outside. I still have some plumbing to do on the turbos , brakes, fuel pump and am looking foward to hearing the engine run, that is if everything works. I did spend some time on the rear, both the springs and the housing (chopped) and after two days think got it right. Let me know what you think of the stance.

Fantastic!

I like the little projector beams and where you put them. How effective are they?

Can you find some cobra center caps for your wheels? Do they make them?

Looks very mean, almost angry. I wouldn't want to get in its way. Great work man. Congratulations. What's the sticker on the front fender?

nice! I was just looking at your previous thread on choosing your paint color. Im building a similar car except a coupe and not as extensive in the engine compartment haha. I think you should have done a PTM rear bumper but other than that it looks great. What kind of suspension do you have up front and do you know how much it was lowered from stock? What about your rear suspension setup? and are those 225/60/15?

That looks awesome! I thought you had yellow letter tires on it? I'm glad to see you went with TA's.

The deals on the fender are for a road racing program.

Wow, your car looks really nice. I think the back is sitting a little high. The front height looks perfect. If I had to be picky, the tires, front and rear, could be a little fatter.

It looks great! Love the colors which all seem to work well together. The front center lights, side exhaust, wheels/tires look to be great choices. I really like the front center GT 350 TT on the fan. As for the stance I like the rear end raised just slightly as you have it. I'm not into the slammed to the ground look and yours suits me fine. Great job!
