Project Kryptonite (Rupp Take Note)

Next I peeled the Roof and completed the repairs to the window lip and upper front corners that were ate away from years of living under a vinyl top.

On goes the new roof and off with the tail panel ending week 1

The tail panel received several mods. I welded in the fuel opening from a 67 donor panel as well as a custom insert the customer picked up from a truck tail panel. Once installed I cut in openings for the Exhaust

Next I moved to the firewall cutting out the entire panel someone had scabbed in some time back. I replaced it with a single piece of 16 ga and also installed new toe kick panels to complete the entire floor replacement. I rolled a new transition to the firewall and fabbed up a new upper tunnel to give the clearance needed for the 6 speed.

At this point I was waiting on new door assemblies as the original doors were wasted and had been covered up with gallons of mud. So I started roughing in the main tub starting with short strand then a skim coat of Rage gold. End of week 2

I had to go out of town for work so lost a week. When I got back the Doors, fenders and all the CF parts were waiting for me. This last week was spent hanging, pulling, welding, grinding, and cussing until all the gaps came in. I fit the Anvil parts and all the metal work is now done. End of week 3 and now we are current.

Starting today I will begin roughing in the body work on the doors and fenders. I plan to get it into Epoxy tommorrow or Saturday and start blocking the car out.

Also the Engine and Trans is all assembled and ready to drop in, The front and rear suspension is done and just needs final install, the cage is complete and I only need to bend the snout bars once everything is together, and the dash is all welded in and only needs a little mud to get it ready for paint.

I really need to find some talented friends close by as the 1 man show is tough.
