Finally got a moment to wrap this up in the new booth. So much easier in a downdraft is all I can say.

Might as well update since I have been working hard on this project again. Motor and trans are back in and didn't even scratch the new paint. Fenders all line up good enough and fit well. Changed all the powdercoating. Eliminated a lot of the purple, switched to gloss black instead of flat, and polished the turbo to get the anodized purple look"lots or work". Things to come soon is I have 80' of 1 3/4 chromoly for the cage in this car sitting here now. Already removed the windshield and the the steering cross bar and rear strut support bar. Hope to have this be a fun toy this year and really have gotten remotivated to get it out. Also going to get some drag radials and switch to a rpf1 setup possibly. I still like the evo 9 wheels so maybe if I redo them and ditch the plasti dip and do them right so we will see.

Also redid the stoptech and brembos. Figured white would be fine since I never drive it, I am a little concerned about brake dust but we will see.

Freshly powdercoated and rebuilt.

Very nice mate. I'm curious to see if those calipers yellow or not.
What turbo are you on now?
Did you rebuild that T case I need one done too.

Thank you for all the nice comments!
Aaron to answer your questions. Yes the transfer case is freshened up. I am really hoping that the powder does not yellow. Serious nightmare getting powder coat off brake calipers. The turbo is a fp 3786hta.
