On a side note .... do you know what product Tony is using to paint the sub and the interior?
Thanks for keeping us in the loop, looks good! Michael |

The lightest we've done to date is 3,230 to date.. That was a front clip and we started with a 3,670lbs car... The car had a weight balance of 51% front and 49% rear and handles like a champ... We have a car currently that has more carbon on it so I'm guessing it'll be around 3,000 range.. If you're really looking to go the whole nine yards we are molding up a second gen roof, partial floors (almost complete less torque boxes & cross members), partial firewall, quarters, trunk drop (already done), and trunk floor over the next several months... Carbon Kustom will be offering rolling chassis packages hopefully by the end of 3/4 2015... We have initiated work with DSE to develop the potential of a DSE/Carbon Kustoms mixed Composite and steel sub-frame that will take substantial weight out of the sub... Personally I am building a 2nd gen 70 Camaro that has a desired street weight of 2,400-2,600 lbs (see rendering below)... http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/a...psb93a3ded.jpg Every part will be mixed composites except for the rockers, B post and pillars, torque boxes (hence partial floor mentioned above) and floor panel between the inner rear wells that transitions from lower floor to trunk floor... The car will also have a cage and bay bars... Feel free to call me if you have any more questions at 416-566-9660 |

Np 3,250 is very achievable with fenders, inner wells, hood and nose I'd say (maybe a custom rad support)... |

Suggestion to use SPI Epoxy Primers........
Suggestion to buy direct from http://www.southernpolyurethanes.com/
and get a high quality product at a direct to you shipped price with best in industry customer support. And put the cost savings toward your expensive suspension parts |
Popped by Tony's today and we did a super fast test mount of the Carbon TA fenders for Cherokee Soldier, fit nice and we were both very pleased with fitment right out of the mold.... This car is such a clean & straight shell I'm thinking the panel gaping efforts should move pretty quickly all things equal....
Watch in the coming weeks for the debut of "Rick's Tanks" new F-body stamped gas tank on the build... http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps89503d9d.jpg |
Going to be sweet:thumbsup:
