Thanks for the compliments everyone......progress should pick up again shortly after the new year, but until then my chromed core support should be back any day now, my inner fenders were sent to chrome this monday, and my old man finished up machinining my battery box for the engine bay:

You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

Just need to do some "molding" on it to get trid of the extra casting marks before sending it off to chrome.

Also got my pitman arm fully molded and ready for chrome:

That's a badass battery box. Is it made to hold an optima battery or what kind do you plan on running? Can't wait to see more progress

Yes it is for an optima red top that will be going in up front. Don't need anything too crazy as I will just be running the PDX5 for the entire system in the regal.
