Just got these Pics yesterday From a guy called Jason in the States.

"I have included several pics that I took over the course of several months during the fabrication. I hand built the entire chassis using chromoloy of different sizes. The trans tunnel and firewall were re-done for the radical engine set-back, the rear foil was built from scratch using 6061 aircraft grade aluminum as well as the dash. I fabricated a new mount for the after market power rack and pinion..it's an Appleton with 2.25 turns lock to lock. Honestly, there is not much left stock on the Z. I have to modify, fabricate or alter almost everything on this car. I just recently added the large race wheels and slicks. A company called Complete Custom Wheels ( CCW ), hand built them per my specs. 18 by 11.5 on 305/30's up front and 18 by 12.5 on 335/30's out back! Stupid big tires, but I should get some serious traction. As you can see form the pics it has been alot of work, changed along the way, and almost looked like a car again at one point. I can't wait to drive this beast. After I get the Z back from paint, I will send along some more pics"
