Sweet! I'd do that too, but dont wanna put all those miles on my car. I didnt change the muffler in the exhaust so I could keep that classic deep C63 tone.

Finally some news! Tranny is en route to FMU and should b there by early next week. Engine testing is being completed and should also b at the shop by the end of next week. Tired of waiting for the Michelin PSS, will b seeing what's available for fitment of my ADV's.
We are still looking into a couple other enhancements for the car as well. Pics will come as the build progresses.

So everything is at the shop and getting sorted. Rollbar is completed and prepped. Parts are off to powdercoat. Assembly will commence shortly. Really looking forward to seeing the Barolo Red BS hood with CF vents.

That looks awesome, just sucks that you're losing that back seat, although it's for a great reason!

Now, more pics of that widebody SL in the background!

Actually back seat will still b in but folded down. The rear section of the roll bar is completely removable in a few min. That was the goal in the fab.

Shop is working on assembly plan. Only pic I got so far. Valve covers and brake caliper with bronze power coat to match lip on my ADV.1s. Will have a 'mechanical' look with some depth with the caliper color.
Photographer is taking some unique pics of the parts together with the vehicle.
My ADV.1s are getting Neros and will b shipped directly to me this coming week so ill send some of those.

TS, you crazy *******. Sweet ride

95+% of your driving will be on the street. I would not have gone with the Pirelli's. You are going to have serious traction problems.

I would have chosen an R-compound tire for the street.

Mine has been over a year now and I still haven't got to the interior work yet, hang in there, just make sure you keep it long enough to enjoy it once you have got it done.

So many times I see people finish the project then 2 months later it is for sale.
