    Very cool. Looks great to me and I like the splitter. It will be a lot more effective than the old style unit. Looks like a fun project. :thumbs2::tiphat:

    Maverick man it will have one of your hoods. I have just been so busy at work I haven't had time to order it let alone work on the car.

    Justi quick update, it is partially disassembled for media blasting.

    Suscribed to this thread. I'm using the concept drawing as my background even though it's not an awesome Comet...looking forward to the build progress.

    I have looked at the Spectre car but only after we had the concept drawing done. Their car is very nice but I think ours is taken to the next level. We have already been 11.55 in works 2011 Mustang so low 11's in this car should be easy.

    There is one change to the build. Schwartz Chassis will not be building the chassis for the car, we will be building it in house with the help of Lance Rice of Rice Custom Fabrication so I will have more to share once we get rolling.

    just let me know when. i actually have a two off hood. meaning i made two dry carbon fiber hoods. looks like a matt finish. one is for my car and the other is well for a car that i want to make sure get a lot of exposure. if your interested in it let me know.

    no not at this time. one day again. but not noqw.
