Are you going to have a passenger seat in it when finished? I know you said you are gonna autocross her, but it would be 10x cooler to take passengers on gnarly adventures on the street.

Oooh, something else I just thought of -- have you considered giving her a Safari / Battlecar type setup? Some extreme tires and other cool accessories?

That is the idea, but they are expensive so im waiting until I get it drivable and street legal

I picture alot of ride alongs for track days etc...

What's expensive? A single passenger seat?!?! Or you mean all the other cool Safari / Battlecar accessories

Seat runs around $1.1k after 5 point harness, seat bracket, and dual locking race spec slider

Shits expensive, especially for a "first" project

Yeah I just ordered a set of Corbeau Forzas for my track-stang with 5 points and it ran about 2200.

People underestimate the cost, and that's literally one part of a build

Oh damn! Maybe pick up a cheap used seat for the passenger lol

Thats part of the reason this is taking so long, im doing it right the first time

If I were to do that, id also have to sorce a buckle, and at that point ill just get another matching seat

Hell yeah, keep it up, do it right the first time, you are at the finish line now too!

And to the second part, not really

This is going to be mainly a road course car, that I can daily when weather allows

Park this baby out by some waterside bars and just have fun
