As far as the front spoiler goes, I’ve got to trim down my template to get it a bit smaller, then figure out the mounts. I also want to use the front blinker lights that are in the bumper for brake cooling ducts. Who knows when I’ll get to any of it.:rolleyes: As you can see, the hood isn't even properly painted yet, that's just black SEM primer.
The hood fits amazingly well for a race part. Way better than any AAR Cuda hood I’ve ever seen.
Here is a front shot where you can somewhat see the gaps. The biggest issue is that the Drivers side rear corner is a bit high. But even with that the fit was better than expected.

Well, I have a small update. We haven't been working on the car as much as I had wanted to, but the roll bar is getting closer. Saturday, we got the main hoop tacked in place, down bars welded to the main hoop, diagonal and passenger harness bar tacked in place. Just have to finish the drivers harness bar and the main hoop components are done.

Now, I just have to figure out how I want to build the door bars and how I want to connect those with the down bars in the engine bay.

Today, me and my Dad went to the autocross, speed stop challange, show car, and drags at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA. Got to see a lot of cool cars and even got a couple of my first rides ever on an autocross course! It was awesome, now I can't wait to drive my car again!!


Thanks,

Jon,the roll cage is looking real good.:thumbsup:

Hi Jon,
I've just finished reading all 15 pages of your project! It really is looking good! You have come a long way since we spoke on the AMC forum. Very Impressive!!! You have some excellent people here for advice.
Regarding the rear axle, I may have missed it, but did you have any camber or toe-in built in?
Hope to see you at the track soon!

Is this Bob with the Black 69 AMX with minilites? The rear axle has no camber or toe in built in. I bought the first housing and hubs before I realized that I could put camber in, if I were to start from scratch now I would think about putting some camber in it.

Yeah, it has come pretty far, and I made a lot of changes to the original plan. I wasn't going to get this extreme with the suspension but then I found this site and all hell broke loose, lol.

Thanks,
Jon

Depending on what hub you have I think you can buy different snouts with different camber built in?

AKA hillbillybob?
The fella with the fastest Trunion car in the west? :thumbsup:

Also, This weekend is the Kenosha Homecoming:cheers:
I'll take a few pictures

That's who I am thinking of. Bad ass car, one of the few along with yours, that lead me to turn corners instead of running in a straight line.

Mike, take as many pictures as you can for me, lol. Any word on that Javelin with the cage in it? has it been finished?

Thanks,
Jon

Hey Bryce, hows it going?

I am running the Moser aluminum 5x5 GN hubs. Since you brought that up I had to look, I found some gn -1 camber snouts that would work. But, it would be a pain to cut the ones off my housing now and weld these on. I guess I can always try this next time around.

Thanks,
Jon

Just to let anyone reading this know what we are talking about....
