As promised
Here is whats holding me up
This project has been such a huge under taking. No so much in its being hard, but its just a huge amount of work. here are some quick pics of the new custom made Every thing for this project is custom made. All of it except the shocks and springs (that are MIA) is fabricated and made in house. Including the lateral trac bars you see int he pics. Even the shocks and springs have been custom made for this G55

Looks like a ton of work to me Mike. I am not mechanically inclined, so all I can say is it looks pretty cool and I definitely would like to see the pictures when it is done and sitting at normal height!

If you made the exhaust with tips similar in shape to the recently released Akrapovic C63 system I would start humping the legs of my chair instantly.

I got the G55 done, so that huge project is out of the way. Sadly one of our fabricators who was going to do this project with me. passed away over Christmas weekend. Really a tragic story. We've been a bit short handed since then. It looks like I'm about 3 weeks out with header orders. I really want to get this done though and I will. its just a matter of time.

Yeah we just brought him on about a month before. He was highly skilled in making exhaust systems and roll cages. Not only that. He was really excited to be a part of what we have going on and an all around nice guy. Last time I seen him was the Wednesday before Christmas. He helped me make a gag gift for my girlfriend. Thursday he didn't show up to work. Friday we were off. I found out Sunday that he had passed away. He had a wife and a 2 year old daughter.
