Looks great Fuzzy. I hope to start final bodywork this weekend and have HM1111 ready by October.

During the transition periods between owners, this build was somewhere in cyberspace so I started another one called "1081 NorJak Hurricane", also here in the build pictures section.

Previous build thread for 1081 was deleted by server, must have been getting tired of waiting for me to get to work...pictures are available on the HM site or ClubCobra under user name: fastraxsg.

That looks awesome Ken. I sure love small block Chevys. I just picked up another Corvette (1965). I'll have to forget the Ford stuff I recently learned when I restore it.  ;D

Looking good Fuzzy. I love my Chevy power plant too. Got 510 miles on it already. I'm going to have to slow down or I'll run out of mileage, or update my insurance.

BDF,  Unhook your speedo. cable . That way you can honestly tell the cop "I don't know how fast I was going". ;D

I've still got all the photos on file and back up, just not the time to re-post.  One of these days....thanks for the kind words, am slowly doing things.  Need to pull the tubs back out, do some fiberglassing, paint the bottoms, hook up the exhaust so I can check and modifiy and then put 'em back on.  Still having fun.  glad to hear some of you are getting the miles on.  Keep 'em rolling.

Some time here in the near future, looks like we are going to pull the motor and trans, move it forward an inch or so and up one to one and a half inches.  Too close to the foot boxes and the whole shebang is sitting too low in the chassis.  Also looking like a re-do of the undercar exhuast as it probably won't clear our monster speed bumps around here.

Top filler inside trunk.  LeMans cap will be a locking cap with no connection.

with tub in place.  Battery will be on left, cables enter through hole.  Am considering making the center section a lift up section for access to fuel level, wiring and fuel filler.
