More progress
Found a good place for the trunk release.
http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...9445300025.jpg Got all the exhaust welded up and smoothed out. I will never do that again. http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...4944850007.jpg Then started on the gas tank. Made a full size mock up of the tank to make sure everything fits. I have a stainless tank made with the vaporworx internals. Carl C was helpful to give me some parameters to work with. http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...6344990007.jpg http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...6244980006.jpg Rodger at Ironworks got my tank mounts and tie downs laser cut, WAY easier than hand cutting. Can't thank him enough for these. http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...8145170012.jpg http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/o...8245180013.jpg |
Got the tie downs tacked in place. I'm going to start on the rear pan and mock up some exhaust tips next.

Amazing work. Very nice.:yes:
|
I can kinda see it in the pictures, but what kind of wheel barrow did you use to make the outside curve of the fuel tank again?
Rodger |
Amazing work Jason! Attention to detail is stellar!
|
Amazing work :hail:
|
Been waiting for my fix. Very nice Jason! :hail:
|
Whew! If i had a few millions loose i would be on your doorstep and giving you some work and an open bill! Definetely over the top! We would build more than one for sure....
Hey, i'm buying tickets... Lead.:hail: |
The car looks amazing. I love the Tie Down just make sure you roll that bad boy in a trailer and actually tie is down to make sure there is enough clearence and that the location actually works.

Awesome work Jason :hail:
|
Man just finished reading it all, almost to much to take in @ once. You are the man thanks for getting the rest of us pumped back up!!!!!:bow: :hail:
|
Thanks guys, appreciate the comments
|
I just love the creativity you have! :bow:
|
This truly is the finest fab work I have ever been witness to. This will be like no other. Thanks for sharing.
|
So, what do you guys think about the location for these. Although I guess I'm committed since I just cut two big azz holes in my pan. Just thought it would be easy to adjust them in the trunk instead of under the car. Now I just need to get someone to machine me some covers.

What do I think- Its friggin Awesome. Great idea, it sucks getting under there to make adjustments.
Killer work Jason :thumbsup: Rich |
Very Nice!! Your work always amazes me Jason!
Make a template & I machine them for you! Quote:

Put a 30* bend in your tie downs -- you're never going to get a hook (twisted flat style) in there and not interfere with your fuel tank... as it looks from the pics... Maybe there's more space than the pics show. But you might want to test that before you're done mocking up.
Beautiful work as usual. When you moving to Giantsville to go full time? :D |

WOW :hail: |
Giantsville,... . I laughed my a$$ off on that one. Good one Mr. Weld. Jason you should be doing this full time. That work looks every bit as good as any pro car I've worked on.
|
There is some amazing fab work on this car. Nice job! :thumbsup:
Brian |
They look sweet there. I can't wait to see what you do for covers.
|
When this car is done, it will be like the second coming of christ! It is beyond imagination! What beautifiul talent GOD has graced this man with! AWESOME!!!:hail:
|
UNREAL work on this project
Oh My Gawd !!!
This is one of the sickest First Gen Camaro builds I've ever seen. The craftsmanship is beyond my imagination. Jr and I can't believe what we are seeing in this build thread. UN-FREAKIN-REAL !!!!!!!!! I hope to see this piece of rolling art just once in my life, and I'll know I died and went to automotive heaven !!!!! |
Yeah, she's a sweet ride. ;)
|
Great work! :thumbsup:

Oh......I'm sorry. Are you vertically challenged as well? I didn't connect the dots with the mini truck thing. My bad.

ps I used to have a Yota that stood 9 foot 6. Roger you Giant you stay out of this. Just because you can't fit in a normal car like the rest of the world you don't have to take it out on us short guys. BTW - you doing any riding on that niner of yours ? |
Jason
The car is looking awesome! Wish I had half the skill you have. Mike |
Next time stand on a box to take the correct photos.... lest we all get the wrong impressions. Size is everything. Just ask Rodger. :willy: :woot:
|
Wow, great thinking Jason. Very clever indeed.
Keep up the great work. You have a great vision.:thumbsup: :cheers: |
