Payton, just found this thread. Loving what I'm seeing and "borrowing" lots of ideas for my 2nd gen track car. Are these C6 spindles?

Still working my way through all 90+ pages of this beast! :computer:

Happy for ya buddy! It’s coming along.

The shock reservoir lines are now perfect. :gitrdun:

CJD Automotive 06-06-2019 02:50 PM

Definitely looking badass.

You get to do the fun part of putting clean and shiny parts on the clean and shiny car...and it all fits together like it was built that way!

Sieg 06-06-2019 03:48 PM

Looking good PK, though not exactly Thrifty. :sieg:

Yes and someone that actually knows a thing or two about shocks — rather than just spit out BS — valved and gassed ‘em — so they won’t be missing any parts and they’ll be done RIGHT. And the best part — he won’t have to listen to how great the supplier was or how many go Kart races were won....

God I don’t miss any of that!

JJ Furillo FTW if you want great shocks and set up! There are others as well... just as long as it isn’t secret and isn’t sauced.

raustinss 06-06-2019 05:38 PM

I hope nobody wants anything in their lives secret sauced lmao

Musclerodz 06-06-2019 07:23 PM

Powder-coat jail. That's a new one. lol

WSSix 06-06-2019 07:29 PM

Looks fantastic, Payton. I'm glad it's moving along for you.

How exactly do you power coat an entire car though? I thought the powder needed to be sprayed on a preheated car. I'd think it would take a long time to get the power into all the nooks and crannies which means the car would have cooled off by then.

If it has jail involved... PK can find it. :lol:

waynieZ 06-06-2019 09:03 PM

Payton a whole lot of nice work right there . SWEET!

slimjim 06-06-2019 09:53 PM

geez we may very much live in the same neighborhood. who did you use to 'paint' the car?

preston 06-07-2019 10:45 AM

Well I sold my car and left this hobby behind and strangely enough my lust for super duper performance and race cars has also faded, but I still have subs to some of the build threads and I have to say, its looking really good and almost re-excited the old feelings for a moment.

You should be very happy with sticking with it and putting together such a nicely done machine. This is one I'll continue to check in with because you're doing it right.

Payton King 06-12-2019 08:32 AM

Thanks Preston! Always enjoyed your Mustang.

And thanks to the rest of you as well. Been a long time coming for sure. I powder coated entire car, doors and fenders too. It is a race car and did not need a perfect finish, although the power is amazingly very smooth.

FNO powder coating in Concord, NC did the powder. Great people, awesome job. They told me 10 days and it turn into 3 months. I get they have race shops as regular customers, but it was still a painful wait.

They do put it in the oven after sandblasting to bake off grease, etc. But I am not aware of the metal needing to be hot to apply the powder. They spray the powder then put it back in the oven to cook the coating on.

Blake Foster 06-12-2019 08:42 AM

looks awesome Payton!!

Payton King 06-12-2019 09:53 AM

Thanks Blake! See you in a few days

Chevelle 08-04-2020 04:37 PM
