[QUOTE=Sonar Chief;702054]It's good to get some quality time with the car ... as far as the roll bar question see attached picture, the top bar is not under the cross brace cuz the angle I installed the bar. But, to answer your question the top bar is 1.75" from the center roof brace to the top of the bar and closer to 1.5" out to the down/ trunk bar.
https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/2499/aVufEU.jpg Thanks, Yes it's good, I'm actually getting a lot done, might have to start a thread, after all the years I've been one here, |
as the kids all say "those headlights are sick", Nice work!
I am going to check into them |
Glad you’re pleased with the Dapper headlights. I plan on running them too. I heard good reviews on them.

Update 7/12
Well here's the status of the apparatus .... been on the injured reserve list for several months with a pinched nerve in my back, osteoarthritis in the left wrist, carpal tunnel syndrome, and right shoulder rotator cup injury. Yikes ... COVID pushed any operations and rehab out months but I did get the carpal tunnel release surgery (big ol honking slice in my palm) in May and injections at L4/L5 and L5/S1 in June.
The left hand is better after 8 weeks but not back to 100%. So to work on my mental health I have been working on the Camaro doing bodywork on the driver's fender, header, and valance panel. Laid down two coats of SPI epoxy inside and out, and fixed the low areas with some filler. Now to spray some primer surfacer and get the panels sanded down to 400. Then spray some Raptor on the inside of all these panels, that's all :lol: I'll post pictures as soon as ImageShack lets me upload pictures ... |
Pictures!!!
Some car porn ....

Thanks for looking ... |

Thanks Wayne, I think my warranty ran out and everything is breaking now!!! Not much to show but a whole lot of work to get here .... prime, sand, and repeat multiple times! Filled the low spots and re-primed with SPI epoxy primer then 2 coats of primer/surfacer ... if you really want to see how bad your body work is sand the surfacer w 400 and it shows all the bad areas, ask me how I know, :lol: And I used a SEM Urethane Flexible Foam between the inner and outer layers of the hood where I cut out for the hood vents ... the skin was moving too much when I was sanding. When the directions say 2 minutes cure time they ain't kidding, if you pause to reposition or think the foam cures at the nozzle .... went through 5 mixing tubes :bang: https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img923/5834/4pSH9X.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img923/246/6GJoOW.jpg Little more sanding before surfacer ... https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/3042/nCC7kV.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/3979/jDlUTG.jpg 2 coats of Primer/Surfacer... https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/3064/HuiQAF.jpg https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/9220/6jnYjw.jpg Sanded the hood with 400 grit ... not too bad but needs some putty in a couple spots! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img923/7443/8MHolD.jpg Mandatory for straight body work ... https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img924/3307/pVqqdT.jpg Thanks for looking .... |
