Still, you can go "HoHoHo" in front of the mirror! In my book, you're allowed to do at least that.

Cutting and moking up the new floor in the rear. Never seen anyone ever tubbed a C3 this far and make the soft top functional. Mostly they skip the sofftop.

its just a digital display of all small gauges like normal.. and some added things like outside temp, time etc. And then you can choose between some different screen set ups that suits best depending on situation youre in.. for example one screen will display speed very large for when youre on racetrack or something.

There could be more trick stuff if i had an LS engine instead of NRE engine.. NRE engine is top of the bill but does not output all digital info like an LS engine..

Sorry))))))))))))))

hi guys!

Some of you noticed there werent posts anymore.. reason is we got in some delay with the engine and our plans with the car changed. Will be set for some big shows and contests and therefore we do not to show all new stuff yet..

But when car will be finished the whole pictures and built will be shown..

I consider of selling te streetshop chassis and go for the Specvette chassis.

So if there might somebody whose interested, check
