Pro Street Is Still Alive!

I'm trying to light a fire under the guys working on my car. It hasn't been touched in months now! That's what happens when you pay up front. You get a better deal but they no longer have the incentive to get it done faster. I have the paint color picked out and the car is close to being ready to paint but there will be some more to do after that too.

Yeah, good luck with that.
 
Yeah it really pisses me off. They do great work but are so slow it's ridiculous. Especially in the summer when they are dragging & driving and holding all of these events like the "Fastest Street Car Shootout" and "Elite Pro Street".
 
Well the rear side of the car is just about finished as it gets closer to paint. The goal is to have it ready for paint by year's end.

The rear suspension is finished. Next, everything will be removed and power-coated.

• Full tubular rear clip
• Fully-polished Weld V Series 15x14 wheels with Hoosier 31x18.5 Pro Street radials
• Moser M9 fabricated 9" rear w/aluminum center section, 35 spline axles & WaveTrac differential
• Wilwood 4-piston caliper disc brakes
• Tin Soldier 4-link with wishbone track locator and anti-roll bar
• Polished stainless wheelie bars
• 3.5” stainless exhaust with electric cut-outs & Borla stainless mufflers over the axles

Trick billet trunk hinges with mini gas struts (no broomstick needed to keep trunk lid open). Filler neck and level sensor need to be added to new custom fuel cell.

Rear bumper mounted and trunk lid aligned perfectly straight with perfect body gaps. Trick battery disconnect installed (NHRA requirement).

The car is in Cedar Rapids. When I started the project I lived in Quad Cities but have since moved to Tennessee.
