Engine nice and simple in its new home. Had to eliminate 4 vent rows due to lowered engine bay size and hoping she has enough air to breathe. Not much room on exterior sides between fender and top of compartment to put vents. Time will tell

Body work nearing completion, but gave the roof a bit of funk.

That company website is pretty ancient, I've never contacted bgw. I have an aversion to anything facebook, but maybe I'll peek. These things must be very rare as I've never seen one in the wild , but have seen some Vendetta's years ago.Not sure of but curious about the actual years this kit was for sale.
Exterior is done, getting ready to install new seats then it will be on the road soon ---although still needing an interior. Pics to come once I get her out in the daylight.
