Good Afternoon All,

It's been a long week and I am sorry that I didn't get this post out sooner.

I've been working with Ron at WMC Design
(( [email protected] )) www.wmcdesigns.com

In Order to clean up the engine bay you have all seen the new color.
Now to make it stand out Ron is designing and cutting us some Billet Valve Cover Emblems

Here are the Final Renderings

In order to save money Ron cut the samples out of Plexiglass.

Final Part - Cut to Size

Ron shipped Kenny a 6" and a 8" Version for fitment.

Once Kenny chooses the size he likes on the valve cover Ron will cut the new billet emblems.

That is too cool. I'm sure you've got something planned for those plexiglass pieces?

Just can't keep up with you Marty!! Just about to get it all done and you go and rip it apart? :lol: I've been there - most people scratch their heads and think your crazy - but you have to do what you have to do, right?

When will it be back together in black?

Back to working on the Garage again. Like I said getting ready for the next project car.

I needed space for Parts and Tires. The plan is to suspend a shelf even with the attic area.

Dennis at Hi-Speed Welding (( www.highspeedwelding.com )) ordered me some heavy wall
2 x 2 Square tubing and welded tabs on the ends.

Spent about 2 hours sanding them smooth, getting them ready for paint.

All painted in Chassis Black

Picture of the center support brackets that will tie into the ceiling

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...Garage_016.jpg

I hung the first 20 footer, man is that hard to do by yourself. You can also see that the
center supports are already hung. Okay that was also a pain in the butt.

http://www.syborgtwinturbo.com/album...Garage_020.jpg

There are three 3/8" lag bolts that tie the center supports in the ceiling rafters. I had to put in
two extra boards in the attic to anchor the center support.

Okay the shelf is up.
The center will be used for Tire Storage and the corners will be used for parts storage.

Still to do is build the uprights and I this time I am going to have the center supports
powder coated by Jay over at Pro-Tek Powder Coating (( www.propowder.com ))
