Glad to see you getting back in full swing Tom! Whether it be money, time, or a combo of both, most of us know how tough it has been as of late. We all have priorities. Quite a few projects went to the back burner or just went away all together. Glad you were able to keep it kept! Look forward to seeing it come together! :thumbsup:

Thanks.. I wanna cut it slap up and start over. I BELIEVE i can do it . Life has been a big struggle last couple years and this project isnt easy to start over. It lets me use the creative place in my brain that really takes me away from personal struggles. If nothing else i can hone my ability to use some metal fab tools. inspiration courtesy of :lateral:

NEVER THOUGHT ID SAY IM
EXCITED TO CUT THIS THING UP :unibrow:
After seeing all the metal fab i have over the last couple years, i cant leave this car the way it is. I have to admit it has clearance issues with the circletrack style stuff that was under it. I never could see it being driven very much with what was there. I wanna be able to Drive it without issue. I know it wont happen overnight but im going to cut everything off from the firewall forward and alot of the floor. Remake the underhood area and the rear wheeltubs (wider) and floor/trunk. Mod the dash with a metal dash pad.I love the metal fab part of building and have ideas for a new and much improved car. Its not about having the fastest or best car on the site its about taking what ive learned and having fun getting to a new level.
new shrinker/stretcher showed up today...YES

Tom

coolwelder62 03-04-2011 08:00 PM

Tom,As soon as you get me your rack I can get everything fab up and sent right out.I would build the clip now,but I really want to check rack fitment first.Ups that thing out mon. and I can have it to you by 3/16/2011.:thumbsup: Scott
