Very nice! Did you do all the upholstery work, use a kit, or have a shop sew them up?

[skoolsen]

Flares and wheels look awesome. I can't wait to see it painted. You did a real nice job on the seats.

I am just looking back through the pictures again... Your car is an inspiration for my conversion.  I just love how its all coming together. 

I was reviewing the engine placement pictures.  Did you have to modify the width of your S2 frame to get the zetec to sit that far forward?  It doesn't look like you have trimmed too much so far.
Cheers,

Thanks

I have not altered the frame, but the engine is a tight squeze up in the v, and the axles are angeled slightly forward from the gearbox.
