Post your Spyder

I'm just putting this here because I'm sick of looking at the spam post below. Besides, it might be a good time to post images...

Howdy,

More pics!



I finished the hood latches, hood latch mounts and installed the hood roller kit.

I decided to spin the Spyder around so I could do a little welding on the rear section of the frame. I'm thinking about adding a bolt-on brace that fits inside the rear spoiler so this area is a little stronger.

After I bolted the body to the frame and latched the hood down the doors fit so much nicer!
