Thanks, I'm really enjoying the process and their craftsmanship!

Here's the finished picture of the rocker panels. I wanted something subtle but really a finished looked. I'm very happy how it turned out.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...25f9317750.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7b7b023f73.jpg

Very subtle indeed. Excellent attention to detail.

Wow great craftsmanship love the attention to details.

Mad skills!

desids 01-29-2017 12:10 AM

That is a piece of art - wow can't wait to see it in color. Extremely cool fabrication!

lsuguy 02-05-2017 11:26 AM

Very cool man. It's a love/hate relationship when I look at the cars that BBT does body work on. I love the work but hate that mine doesn't look that good lol

I will be watching this one!

extralight 03-19-2017 03:32 PM

Ok, I'm a bit behind on updates. Here's the build pics of the rear spoiler. Wanted something a bit different.

Looks like and NSX from the rear. That's a good thing. Thanks for the updates.

Here is a quick walk around video of the car

:wow: now that is really nice

Goosesdad 03-26-2017 09:44 PM

Awesome.

Gumer, sorry I couldn't meet with you this time, just got back from Scottsdale. The car is coming along great, making some great choices.

this thing is going to be sooooo nice when done. Too bad Marty talked u into this drug of ours. Fricken dealers.

Tell troy and pete to keep up the "shoddy" workmanship :thumbsup:

Rag Top Rob 03-29-2017 08:15 PM

Sick!

preston 03-29-2017 09:57 PM

Even the body braces are total craftmanship. Even Rad Rides usually just welds 1" steel tubing everywhere.

Sorry it didn't work out Mike. It was a fun short trip. Very happy with how the car is turning out.

Sorry for the lack of updates.

Me too...lots of man hours there baby.

Here's the rendering for the front. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2faa65351d.jpg

extralight 05-22-2017 07:29 PM

Here's the build pics for the lower spoiler. Each section is to narrow to bend with one piece of aluminum. It is TIG welded in the center to form one piece for each section. It's so impressive the craftsmanship. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2468483805.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...824a35a542.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d77f46f8f0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f487f5c298.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f113ccc800.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...dc38f55ec3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d3ae0c40d6.jpg

The whole front end is being done by Clay, not Pete or Troy. It's Clay's most elaborate metalwork so far. He's doing an awesome job!

CNC'd taillights installed. Left the glass clear so we could color them to our liking.

Very nice looking. To color them will you be applying a paint of sorts?

214Chevy 09-26-2017 10:44 PM

Those taillights and valance are so serious. That view of the whole rear end is sick. Great design!!

I believe it's paint thinned out with clear.
