Re: 8.50 index build
I came to the realization that I didn't have any place to keep my things like tire pressure gauge, cell phone, sungless, or water bottle. Simple solution was to make a dragster glove box and attach it to the weight bar tabs on the passenger side rocker bar. The Mustang is small enough inside that I can reach while in the driver seat (just not belted).

Re: 8.50 index build
Dropped the car off at the body shop this afternoon to take care of some things.

Re: 8.50 index build
With the car at thee body shop for some final details, not alot I can update. I did work on some carbon fiber repairs to the dash so it can be painted & airbrushed. I changed from the Racepak IQ3 to the Holley 7" dash which meant the display opening needed to be filled in. Also while fitting the dash initially I notched too far for the X-brace so that needed to be filled in as well.
