Thanks everyone!
Here are some final pictures, at least until next summer. There is more I would like to do but I have no time.
I have made a few minor changes since these pictures but things I would still like to do are:
fix the back panel i/o shield
black out inside of scoop
get a non scratchy window
organize the wiring
and some more that I cant think of right now.
Thanks for all your support!
it looks awesome. And you should know, a project is never finished. Only on hiatus until the next idea for it comes along.

It looks great for what you had to work with.
Just looked through the worklog again and...
This is modding at its best imo, taking a really old pc case and making it a whole lot better nice and cheaply and you achieved this really well, I gotta confess I have been looking on ebay for the cheapest case I could find and make something good out of it for as cheap as possible just as a modders challenge kinda thing hehe, its the whole reason I got into modding, the price of the Lian Li TYR PC-X2000 was a big part of what motivated me to make my own, that and I figured it could be done better
.
I can see past the fan wires and the inside looks good, not hard to picture the fan wires routed out of view, what you did with the rear fan is awesome and the diy roof scoop is very well executed as is the front blower, I knew what body filler is, just did not know bondo was a term for it lol always wondered what bondo is hehe, anyway brilliant work mate.
Flipping Awesome +rep.
