Seriously impressive work.
The plan is to have the cage done done in the next few days, then paint it, then install all wiring. From there, it'll be a few days to install the widebody, and another week (??) installing MCS suspension, CSF radiator and a bunch of other miscellaneous odds and ends (fire suppression, door pulls, new serp belt/pulleys, mounting new buttons/kill switches, mounting race seats, etc.) I'll say right now that I've never been a part of a build that is this extensive. It gives you a massive amount of appreciation for the level of skill and time required to undertake this project. Couldn't be more excited to watch this come together.
Here's a dump of photos I shot tonight... let me know if you guys have any questions.

Look at the bracing in the roof. Serious roll protection.

Looks awesome.... post more! This is the only pornography my wife lets me look at. The other night I was looking at some external reservoir shocks and I uttered "oh baby" she worried for a second till I showed her...
