Then you were'nt going fast enough. My car loved those cattle grates on that "highway" somewhere outside of Logan UT. Doug (the Lucky7Speedshop giveaway truck) saw my car "light up" lol. We were, how u say, driving spiritually.

Glad your car was "unscathed" underneath, mine was unscathed on top....

This build is awesome. Great to see something a little different being done!

I agree, it's one of my favorites as it's unique and actually being used!

Wow!! Your at SEMA?!?! I’m sooo jealous haha.

Rivi is looking sooo good…:drooling:

I hope u get nominated for Battle of the Builders. That would awesome!!! Good luck.

I saw this car in person at SEMA , very nice car, very well done

Agree with the others, the car looked great at SEMA.

The execution is spot on. Looks nearly stock on the outside, to include the interior. Everything underneath is all business.

Met the owner at the SEMA show. Car looked great. The owner was nice enough to talk to us about his car for about 30 mins. Nice guy.

See that ? Somebody said I was a nice guy. Take that Greg Weld.:bigun2:

Charlie - dcracing wanted me to remind you about some money you owe him? He said you would know what it was for...... I'm just the messenger here.:innocent:

Dave

Well, I noticed what you did... you saved your bud Greg from builder purgatory and suggested a vendor to “get ‘r done”... yeah, major kudos for that. REALLY!

JD

One guy with 11 posts.... says you’re nice..... LOL

That is a fact — and I suppose I owe him a hearty “you’re swell” and a pat on the arse for it. I might even hold back on the tee so I don’t embarrass him.

Oh yeah, behind the flipping of birds and banter, there’s a bro hug 🤗

I don’t even like him.

.....

^^^^^^^^ Well, I didn't realize you were that tall. Is the car in the middle a project car :peepwall:

Meet up with Charlie today at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals and got a chance again to look over the Riv. It is perfect car idea. Very detailed with some top quality equipment with a body that is already broken in, so you can drive the hell out of it and not worry that it's going to get scratched.

Mike

I too ran into charley and he didn’t say much. jerk - welds right he is a poor communicator...

lolololol

:lol: hilarious

Matt has been stalling so he can keep my car for the Detroit Autorama. Modifying the BMW seats I bought so they sit lower.

Had to move the motor.

Gettin there.

These look like they will be way more comfortable

How much weight did ditching that monster motor cross member save you?

Base weight on a Riv is 4,036
This pile is...................4,197

Try to match the Rivera stitching. Love car, been looking for one since seeing it at Sema.

e31 csi?

Seats are out being done now. Yes they are out of a 840I E31 ?

Is Matt going to have a spot at Autorama? Any other cars? Gordon's maybe?

The update I got from Stielow is the Riv will be headed my way before Autotorama. I think Matt will be there with the other car he had at SEMA.

Don't know if anyone has asked and it might be a stupid question, but will the seat have all the power options Charlie? Like, up and down, as well as, forward and rear adjust or will they just be installed to your liking and fit you.

Yes Matt sorted out making that stuff still work.

The seats look great I like that they are cut down it blends better.

I like the fact the car doesn’t fit me.....

Lol !

Machined panel done. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5dbbb06f07.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...13b7f9f68f.jpg
