Hey Scott,
Last Monday we worked on it a little bit, got the upper 3rd link bracket welded on and the lca mounts tacked on the new housing, got it under the car.

I am going to fab up a new pan hard bracket for the rear end today, but my Dad is sick so will see if he is up for welding it together tomorrow. I finally got my front wheels back from Forgeline Thursday, they now have the Bad Penny backspacing, so yesterday I got the tires mounted on them.

Nice find on the Javelin, are you going to do a trans-am build like the Sunoco Camaro? You can use many of my ideas as you want, thats no problem right there, lol :cheers:

You got good timing with that Javelin, because a member just pm'd me for your contact info, asking about a subframe for his 74 javelin, you now have the perfect car for R&D.

Thanks,
Jon

Jon,Will need to finish up the camaro first.then I will start working on the javelin.Will most likey be a red,white & blue Trans-am clone.:thumbsup:

Sounds awesome. Speaking of your camaro, it looks like its close to being finished, when do you expect your first drive with it?

Thanks,
Jon

this looks awesome!

About the middle of july I should be able to drive it.:thumbsup:

That's great news, my Humpster plans are delayed 'cuz I bought my road-race gremlin (no, I'm not kidding:P ), so It's cool to see another Javelin build on the horizon.

Here is a picture of my family haulin' Rambler, a bit of a different direction than your build, no silly jungle jim tubes running all over the place in the car. Just a quick reminder of what they look like with wheels under 'em:lol:

But seriously, Keep up the good, (edit)GREAT work:thumbsup:

Nice looking car.

Thanks man, Jon's car will have a similar shape but will be very, very different:lol: .

Lol, thanks Mike. I can't believe that the car has been down for a year and a half. Your car is looking great, have you decided what you are going to do on your front spoiler? The more I look at that hood the more I like it, I might have to ditch the fiberglass amx hood and pick up a hood like yours. How does your hood fit the car? Hows the gaps?

My goal is to have the car on the ground in 2 months, hopefully less. I have to finish the panhard bar, weld in the roll bar and the front engine bay braces, then make some ride sticks to hold up the car. I think that is reasonable, Since I am only able to work on it a day or two on the weekends. Unless I get crazy and put a full cage in it, but I can't let myself do that, lol.


Here is a bad picture of the front wheel, it is a 17x9.5" with 7.4" bs I will have to use a small spacer to widen the track with and to clear the calipers. The tires are 274/40r17 Toyo R888's
