Called into Geoff Sheather's place the other evening to check on the progress of his FC. Geoff is burning the midnight oil to have the car ready for Orange and it was no surprise to find Geoff in the shed sorting out another piece of the buildup.
Here are some pics of Geoff's car to show everyone what a tidy little modified FC he is building from the ground up. Motor is a supercharged V6.

Hard to show the colour without natural lighting, but here's 2 shots, with flash and without.







As you can see from the pics, the car has a lot of neat little features.
When you are at the Nationals in Orange, be sure to check out Geoff's FC.
Regards
Alex

Geoff has a great project. The bucket seats and console look the part, as does the steering column.

Good luck getting ready for Orange.

Looks like lots of drinking getting done, but not much work. Tongue

Where is his battery located,would love to see how his exhaust is setup with such a low fuel tank and engine mount setup if on a HR Front end, not a Rods Rack replacement etc. 

Awesome colour.  Thats just the motivation I needed as the weekend rolls around. 

Lets hope I have something to post early next week. 

Kids wife and time will be the deciding factor  Embarrassed
