Default Finished Pics of ERA634

Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I've posted. I've been trying to keep up with school. We finished the car back in September, but we have yet to get it registered (had some issues with paperwork). Last weekend I parked her in the grass to get some finished pics for everybody. I'll post up a couple, the rest you can check out in the gallery. Enjoy!

Congrats Ike, it looks great. Just the other day I was looking at some of your "in progress" pics and was wondering what happened to you. Good to see you back. And you better get it registered before the snow starts falling.

Don't worry, it's been out and about already (let's just say we borrowed a plate). We just got the paperwork we need today, so hopefully it will be registered soon....maybe tomorrow?

Great looking package! As you can tell from my gallery, I'm a little partial to the metallic red family.

Congratulations.

Thanks for the complements. My dad, brothers and I certainly had a great time building it. The color is Porsche's Arena Red Pearl. It was used on some of the Boxsters in the late 90's. The motor is a 427 SO from Southern Automotive. Iron block, with rebuilt bottom end. Edelbrock aluminum heads, Al. water pump, intake manifold, and flywheel. It breathes through two Holley 650's and a Reed cam with a little over a half inch of lift on intake and exhaust. Supposed to be a little over 500hp at the flywheel, which is more than enough.

I bet it scatters the leaves pretty well when you start the beast up.

Yes, yes it does. Backing it out of the garage was great. Leaves and dust going in every direction. Kind of like a shock-wave from a bomb.
