Default 24 Fire Fox headed to Lip-Ship

I had a great conversation with Phil Lipschutz on the restoration of my 24 Fire Fox. Were looking at a January start date and it could take up to year for completion. Its looking like it will get a Bravo ITS system with a nice size motor. The goal for the cockpit is to go with a Gladiator look.

Yea Phil sounds very enthused about doing the job and has already come up with some cool ideas.

I would love to see pics of the 20's he done so I can get some more ideas. I have seen Lil Max but i know he's done more.

It's a 1986 with a 502 and TRS. They only made a 11 so and this one was custom ordered from the factory. it doesn't have the center console and it came with a different engine hatch.

Pics on the way.
