Hi Tim

I don't have my shell yet to compare, but is the surface where these will sit nice and flat and not curved?

Thanks

Craig

It's been a long cold winter, but I'm back at it again

Managed to get some odds and ends completed as well as a little bit of painting.

Finished up the front shock install on the BatBerry today. All it needs is a little bit of paint and we're good to go!

Man I hate re-work...

Bad news: I ended up having to chop off the shock mounts and lower them.

Good news: Everything works properly now and I learned something

The front end of the BatBerry is looking great! I'm very happy with this stage of the build. Mechanical bits (minus the engine) are complete. It will soon be time to yank that engine out!

Another successful day today where we removed the engine from the BatBerry. This will allow me to finish up the final fabrication work and painting in the engine bay.

Some more updates today

I was able to get the BatBerry engine mounts beefed up and the rest of the front chassis/firewall/cross-member primed and ready for paint this afternoon.
