Hey, love the vector. I've got a 1983 vector and I see your fuel cell is upfront. I am tearing mine down for paint and interior this winter and was wondering what kind of difference that made. Easier to drive, cut out the porpoise did it slow you down any?

what i did is if you see were the aluminum piece is thats were the two pieces tied in together it a 1/8 thick by 1/2 wide aluminum strip and i used aluminum bolts for accent color the dash was rounded at the top so i put the pieces up there be for the paint and then scribed through the dash were my gauges were and scribed the curve of the dash then just cut it out made a test fit with gauges then painted when ready its not the best but it look ok i assume
