Close enough, I’ll probably have the anodizer people media blast it before anodizing to give it a uniform surface.

Looking good, it should come out nice in the end.

Looking good....

Ive been there with the sanding and brillo elbow grease. not an easy task

i want to do a polished GT chassis and dread just thinking about it.

Dropped off the Aluminum bits at the PO today, thanks again Jeff, GoMachV for another reference.

I finished trimming out and stickering up the body. The spoiler is still drying. I quite like how well this one looks so far. Can’t wait to finish out the chassis for this one.

That body certainly looks nice - Did You paint it Yourself?

[romulus22]

Andy Jacobson painted the body.

I received my anodized parts today. My fault on not pulling the steel pins from the flywheel. Totally didn’t even think about it. No worries though I have another (cooler) flywheel inbound. Also ordered a random batch of aluminum hardware. I will need to order some different lengths in the future.

And a few pictures as it sits. I could almost get it into a roller just need to put shocks together and a few other small parts.

This is looking badass! I love the stealth look. Can't wait to see it evolve.

That is the coolest black anodizing ive ever seen.

The murdered look, stealth look , black on black look, night look, evil look, dark look...anyway you look at it..it is KICK ASS!!!

My new flywheel showed up today. I had no idea something like this existed. If my original flywheel had been anodized I would’ve probably never found this and it fits the style of this build so well.

I pulled out some of the other parts to build a little more tonight. I still need rear hub carriers and bearings otherwise I’d have put the CVDs together too. Also discovered the shock kits didn’t come with top or bottom spring retainers either. And I realized after I took these pictures I left one silver aluminum screw in the lower right shock, I’ll fix that

But that’s about as much as I’m doing tonight. Time to browse ebay for some more small parts.

I started using these on just about everything.

Those will work just fine, thanks!

Looking at that body never gets old and that flywheel is super cool.

Who's number stickers are those?

[romulus22]

I bought a small stock of these a while ago. Slowly dwindling down as I like the race stickers on a pretty much everything.

[Lavigna]

Coolest flywheel I've ever seen!
