I was able to use the small rubber from steele makes for a cleaner look than the larger factory rubber and i was able to reshape the trunk jams aswell again alot of work but will look killer in paint....if i ever get there lol http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/1175/104vsj.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/7038/101qa.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/7915/124slm.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/5899/068ru.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/4819/054lo.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/9003/091ri.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/1922/086vf.jpg By profleetline at 2012-01-12 |

Some final blocking and mounted a set of seat panels to my seats there from a 53 ford and had to cut them down 3/4" to fit but going to work out well!

That going to be a nice detail. What seats are you using?
|
Thanks sunfire seats with no headrests also the side covers leaves a nice gap for my seat belts to come up through so there kinda hidden under the seats and not hanging over the sides!

They look great in there and they look comfortable too. Is that the factory foam or did you build them up a little?
|
Thanks Wayne!
There factory foam real comfy! may have some extra added in some places of the seat but they will be covered in an light tan leather! |
|
Thats a big car to be muscling around. Is that the complete original frame or is something grafted on to the front ? Looking good.
|
I love those holeshot wheels. Saw your motor on YB- looks surgery room clean. Nice job.

Frames back from the blasters with a good coat of epoxy on it, still have some misc. welding and a few braces to ad but should be ready to smooth soon!

It looks good it must have been in pretty nice shape ot start with.
|
|
|
|
All that time and effort into the frame and your going to use stock stamped steel control arms?
|
No one makes them for AMC pacer front ends lol
Besides u can't beat the durability of a factory arm on the street ecs with all the damn pot holes around here. And there smoothing up real nice. |
Welll first cut of smoothing done and a fresh coat of epoxy!

That's a nice color. Will the suspension pieces be that beige color that you sprayed on the spindles? If so, that looks like a great color combination.
|
Wow. Very nice. Love the color
|
That looks Awesome ! All the work you did payed off big time. Nice work.
It looks smooth glass. |
Thanks yes!
I painted some of the suspension the satin color for some contrast! http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...mtom/008-9.jpg http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...mtom/054-6.jpg http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...tom/001-11.jpg http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...mtom/044-4.jpg http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...mtom/010-6.jpg http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...mtom/035-8.jpg |
