Your car is coming together great!  What an awesome build. One of my favorites for sure.

Since the older pictures have gone away in your thread, do you have any pictures you could post or PM showing your in progress smoothing of your side engine bay inner fenders (where the battery, horns, etc. used to be)? I'm trying to get some ideas for mine and you're inner fenders look great. Also, what brand of radiator/fan are you running?

Thanks, Wes

Last week of fun for a bit. A few little things bolted on.
Got the intake tube and air filters installed.
Got a lot of the air ride parts put together and installed.
Ride-tech went and updated the air bags not with internal hight sensors  :pullinghair: I have all my sensor mounts on and ready to go but they will convert your old bags to the new style for a fee I would imagine. It would be cleaner but I'm not sure its worth the cost and effort. The other thing I wonder about is we run the front bag inverted and that would put the sensor upside down and on the moving end of the shock. Might be a wear issue? ( looks like I have a little time to think about it )
I'm also finishing a front plate to clean up the rad support. I was going to make it before it went off to paint but then the paint date came and went!
Lastly I got some of the A/C hard lines in, condenser and such.

The internal ride height sensor you mentioned is really great but probably a lot less proven than your external sensors..... I will be looking at the interal ones myself when I get there. IIRC, the new internals are something like $400/pair additional up front but less for the upgrade. Have you seen there new titanium mono-tube remote resevoir shocks with the internal sensor? Awesome design!

As always, your car looks great! I'm jealous in a good way!!  :droolingbounce:
