We went back and cut the radiator support  out. Added a larger condenser, install a 85 Audi radiator. Mounted dual 9 inch fans. Ac is complete and vacuumed waiting on our trinary switch to come in.  We got the intercooler tank mounted and almost plumbed. Seats are in. Tach is mounted. Shifter bezel complete. Lots of the wiring is done. Fuel system is almost done and trans should be ready next week. Hopefully be firing this thing up in a few weeks.
