this is a thread to show my new build. its a 87 fc3 wich i am building into a E Production scca national car. ower old car was totaled at the runoffs this year so time to get to work. fist pic is the old car and the damage. the next pics are of the car as of today. this was a complete car 3 weeks ago and i have been slackin on the build but am starting to bust my hump now. the floor on the new car needs a few spots fixed but nothing major. i will be adding more pics as the build moves forward. ill be happy to answer any questions.

that was the old car, right frame rail is 4 inches lower then the left and pushed back 3 inches. didnt want to clip it for the forth time so its on to build the new car. i stripped the complete car and now just mocking the body work on the front so i can add the fender and bumper mounts and supports.

Looks like a fun build. What front fenders are you running? I've been looking at the Mariah EP Fenders recently. Do you have any experience with them or know of a better option?

the fenders we hd been running are AWR fenders and we also run AWR front bumper and splitter aswell as hood and rear bumper but all the original fenders hood bumpers and splitter we had gotten from AWR where 3 ply fiberglass and kinda heavy so the ones we have now are molded from the AWR fenders but are cleaned up a bit for fitment and are 2 ply and much stonger and lighter. dont ask where we got them though.
