Wow…I noticed in one of the other pics that the latch was higher…just seemed like a funky set up. Car looks great though! ---

Man I need to just start a build thread. Here’s the new STM Evo X aluminum power steering reservoir that Austin made today. It’s available for sale I believe already [![http://i1333.photobucket.com/albums/w630/moralec31/760EFF56-9A83-4A5E-B13D-93818F2B8FC7_zpsqhl9xqpm.jpg](http://i1333.photobucket.com/albums/w630/moralec31/760EFF56-9A83-4A5E-B13D-93818F2B8FC7_zpsqhl9xqpm.jpg)](http://s1333.photobucket.com/user/moralec31/media/760EFF56-9A83-4A5E-B13D-93818F2B8FC7_zpsqhl9xqpm.jpg.html) ---

Are they doing and fabricating 90% of the work? Serious question, no jab intended. Was just curious if they are building it to your spec/desire. ---

Austin’s made every part that goes on the car. I sat with emery and we talked about what I wanted to do with the car, came up with a list and a target budget. I have no fabrication skills so I couldn’t really just machine brackets for a small brake kit or weld so it helps a ton. Usually Austin or emery will shoot me a text or update on the car daily. Great guys to work with. ---

Start a build thread. Cool stuff happening there and they do some damn fine fabrication. I can make things work but their alum skills are legit! ---
