Finally decided to start a build thread, it's been a long time in the making and it's time to document.

Every modification was done by my father (a professional fabricator) and myself. I am proud to say it has never been to a shop other than my own.
I'm a female participating in a man's hobby but hopefully my car speaks for itself.
