Topic: My 78 TA "pro touring" project TWIN TURBO KIT UPDATE

[Fitz78TA]

Man I have been waiting FOREVER to see updates of this thing. Damn this car is so sweet. I want a ride in this so bad. You have got to be proud.

well when i get done if you are ever in southwest MO feel free to give me  a shout! ('when' its done )

I have been messing around with interior before the car goes out for body work, as the rear panels didn't fit with the cage/mini tub. The kick panels fit just by shaving the backs down to where they were flat. all the t top pieces and a pillar's fit in tight, but do fit. So all i have to do is build some rear B pillar panels. I also had to cut my own headliner board out of some ABS plastic since no one makes a headliner without seat belts (running 5 point harnesses) or sun-visors (THANKS PETE!).

here are a couple pics of the progress of the interior.





here are the pics of the abs I cut to start my new fiberglass rear panel and also my mold. Hope to make the new fiberglass panel next week







and here is a pic of my racepak sitting in the dash, going to tackle making a new gauge overlay soon too.



and a mock up of my Anvil carbon fiber deck lid and filler panel

Love the rear package tray Did you make ?or where did you get it?

Dumb question but the roll bar isn't going to interfere with accessing the handles to release the t roofs?

Nope, work just fine. They sit next to the t top so the handle slides down just fine

417 motorsports built it actually. I have my template made that will go over it, but still have to cut it out as well.
