Well, I have been working on it almost everyday. I'm plumbing it and trying to hide everything I can. Here are some photo's but it just doesn't look like much.
1-This is the electric motor to open the cowl vent, so I can service the remote reservoirs for the clutch master cylinder and brake, the radiator cap will be there and the fill for the dry sump tank. This will look like something by the end of the week end.
2-I didn't want to see any brake lines on my front end at all. So I ran the lines in the frame, then came out under the upper control arm mount. Screwed the hard line to the bottom of the control arm and re drilled the caliper for a banjo fitting and another short flex line. It all worked out, the only way you can see my brake line is if I run over you
3-This is a shot under the dash on the drivers side. All the brake line plumbing the residual valves the proportionating valve, computer, fuel pressure regulator, drive by wire throttle box.
4-This is the lower passenger side, this is the air conditioning, heater lines, and the rear empty hole is for the batt. cable.

Your car has more plumbing than the Space Shuttle! Must be a lot of work, not only running it, but hiding it too. Looks great though.
We were worried about you.........thought you might have taken up golf of something, since we haven't heard from you for a bit.

My throw out bearing blew up in my roadster, so I had to pull the motor out. Waiting to get my clutch back and had the headers re coated under warranty. They turned this ugly Grey color. My garage looks like a junk yard.

Well, it's a tossup. It could be the one where we solved the worlds energy crisis, or the one where we cured Cancer. Aside from that, it's been cars, cars, cars.
