Bit of both although it will definitely not be a car you would want to drive on the street for very long lol

Re: Lsvx-t

No pictures to show just yet. I have just about finished up my mock up. Need to finish one more oil cooler line and it's finished in the engine compartment. Once mockup is complete I will be emptying out the engine bay and cleaning and painting.

I still need fuel injectors, plugs, wires, ems, tons of wiring, brakes, and wheels/tires. Things are still moving forward and I still have hopes of the car running before the end of the summer. More pictures soon

Re: Lsvx-t

Now that mock up is just about done. I pulled engine,trans, and subframe along with all supporting goodies to clean everything in the engine compartment and give it a spray. Had to get some paint on the welded bits anyway. More paint, a few more parts and it'll go back together

Re: Lsvx-t

Started on the brakes a little. Front lines are done as well as plumbing in the proportioning valve and bulkhead for rears. Definitely will need another roll before I can go any further.

There’s a nice Polo on BaT right now...

What an awesome build. I really want to see this in the flesh.

Re: Lsvx-t

Haven't stopped working. Currently brake lines are complete. I am going to start working on the electrical systems soon. I am rewiring the entire car for minimalism. Currently waiting for a big chunk of parts as a lot of it is back ordered. My Holley ems, wilwood brake kits, and some misc switches and cables. Pics once I start putting some of these parts to work

Nice ignition board but what an amazing stove. My wife will freak out when I show her. She has mad zkilz in the kitchen.
