Well actually yes, but from the earlier post I wasn't clear this is just such a high quality build I wasn't sure, sorry I didn't get the joke.
 
pictures above are of rear subframe (back half) during "figgurin'out" stage...and of course installed in car. The good part about building it outside the car is the ability to have it fully tig welded on a surface plate (flat surface) at my welders shop (Streitech).....Mark (another Mark?) and Mike are expert fabricators as well as Mike Streicher is a former USAC champion. Their work is above suspicion....nuff said!
 
Sorry efriedrich...I thought you was just bustin my balls about the silver paint
 
the 4-bar as you see it now is at the parrallel 4-bar set up....for street driving....but for ...OK.."street" racin' or going to the dragstrip I can easily reconfigure the bars to be a 32",36", or 42" with a 7 3/4 to 8 1/4 instant center 4 link set-up....the triangulated 4-link has a tendency to "bind" for Pro streeters...thats why a lot of streetrodders go with the non-binding smoother riding parrallel 4-bar....and sarifice the hook-up.I felt I had better be able to make it hook too....in case my buddy w/ the orange 528 HemiDuster wants to "bust em' off for maybe.....5K?

Man, that thing looks great.... I love the red interior. After seeing that rear end set-up I was getting a little bit scared about the 5K grudge race. Then I remembered who was going to be driving the Silver car and felt better! :lol:
 
Mark...my clutch pedal leg is still shakin' from last time we mouthed a race......good thing I don't use it when I shift...WHOOOM-BAA!!!!
 
Well there it is boys...you might say its a GEN V...you know...kinda like the new ones....but an old one ..new style.....w/ gear vendor OD and A/C (told ya it was a street car)

Well... that about brings us up to date....more pics as I progress

Comments welcome ...but I reserve the right to ignore any and all critcism...after all...it's my build

Outstanding. I may be headed to Chicago and might be able to swing down/over to Findlay next weekend. I'll keep you posted!!
