Thank you. Its a lot of work. Mostly done by myself & a buddy & another buddy here & there. My buddy gets most of the credit. He has the bender & is doing the tig welding. I am doing more of the dirty grunt work. Grinding, Cutting, fitting the tubes & tacking some of them etc.

Thanks guys, We have finished a few more smaller bars, brackets & tabs for window net, parachute handle mounts, front & mid plates are done. All of the major chassis & cage is now done. I have an appointment with NHRA at our local track on Sat to get it certified for the 25.5 cert.

All the hard work has paid off. Passed the 25.5 cert on Sat. Now the fun begins with finishing up the rest of the car.

Latest updates: Primed, painted & cleared the seat brackets, parachute mount, steering column B5 blue to match the car & painted the Kirkey seats black. I don't like that alum look. Still waiting on the new covers to come in. I have the car all masked off & cardboard windshiled & rear window templates made since the windows are out. Priming, painting & clearing the cage is next. Not looking forward to this.

I had the Challenger out side to do some garage cleaning. Here is how it looks as of right now & a sneak peak of the power plant, someday... In the removable steering wheel & tubular column picture you can notice Pro Stock type inner door handles I had to fab up thru the arm rest since the cage door X bars crossed where the original inner door handle used to be. I made a small filler piece to block off the old opening in the door panel.

Power plant.

They are custom made, prototype Borg Warner 106MM's. They are a matched pair. One of them made 1594 H.P. on a dyno test we did with one of them.
