Sorry long time no updates. Been working on the Camaro quite a bit.
Mini is not painted yet, but I finally ended up getting the guts to chop the front off on Saturday.
It is now time to get some long needed engine work done, timing belt, recoat valve cover, oil pan gasket, and the LS transmission I put together will be going in also.
Heres the damage
Decided to ditch the fuel cell also, even though it is pretty. I am a function over fashion person so the usable aspect of trunk space (as little as it actually is) is enticing to me.
Ended up getting a stock 7.5 gal tank and making it bigger Bought two -6 steel fittings and welded a supply and return to the tank and voila.

Well you know how life gets in the way of projects
just wanted to share some updates. was able to start working on the car again this past weekend.
Ended up building a home made booth and painting the car. Still have to paint the nose clip, doors, hood & trunk lid
Turned out pretty good for my first paint job. Hoping to get the rest of the stuff sprayed either tomorrow or Saturday.
