Payton -- that's looking first class! Nice welding and I like the use of the silicone bronze rod...

Beautiful work. Just curious, how long did it take to do all that finish TIG welding? I don't think I have the patience, aside from the obvious lack of talent, to do work of that caliber.

Don

It looks great Payton. They do beauitiful work.

Do you know what type of rod they used?

I will try
 

and get Dan on here to answer some questions. I know he was in the trunk working the pedal with his ear and welding behind his back and between his legs. LOL

Nice! It makes me feel like I put my stuff together with a hammer.

Darren

Greg was correct
 

silicone bronze rod.

Kyle -- Silicone bronze rod is great for TIG on sheetmetal etc where it is NON STRUCTURAL.... it welds with lower heat - thus lowering the warp factor...

Awesome, thanks guys. I want to pick up a TIG soon so i'm trying to learn as i see fab pics.

PK, Looks awsome,

Dan makes patterns with card board and green tape, so do I, works great !!!!

Well after seeing what Dan has done.I have desided to give up fabricating altogather.I quit.:lol:

Looking good Payton, don't you love how a mini-tub turns into a huge snowball of other things. :thumbsup:

DAMNNNNNNN - looks awesome!!! :thumbsup:

Hey Guys,
Glad you guys like the work. Doing that kind of work is definately a challenge but having a good project owner like Payton makes a guy want to do his best.
Probably the most challenging thing working on a project like this is that's it's a painted, running car, a very nice painted running car! So being careful is half the battle and the other half was trying to figure out how to get my old, half blind butt in and out of that trunk. Had it pretty much down to a science before it was done, but did almost get stuck once.
Legs hanging out the trunk, pedal bewteen my knees and my head stuck with my helmet on, under the package tray, but did mange to get out after a lot of grunting and talking to myself......

Again, glad you like the work and thanks for the kind words......

Yup....

W/silicon (note, there's no "e") bronze rod, It is not unlike gas brazing. You are simply using a different method of providing the heat.

nice job
 

:hail: Dan.... i know its not over the top because of your skills but you really made that turn out nice.. One camaro down a few more to go..lol
Payton.. we wanna know how it drives...

Tom

I want to know how it drives as well
 

Just came back from paint on Saturday. Waiting on some parts from the coaters and then put it back together.

cool
 

:thumbsup: sounds great.. cant wait to see the finished pics and hear how it drives....

Tom

I saw the car Sat. and it looks great. Ronnie did a very nice job painting and Dan did an awesome job as always.

I have only
 

seen pictures of it. Hopefully I can get up there soon

TIme to send the car off for the bottom to get
 

painted. Dan made a dolly. I guess I have the first pro-rik shah

And because we cannot leave anything alone
 

I decided I did not want to use the poly bushings and I was not hip to the heim joints, so I took JP;s advice and used the sphoon ends. Very nice piece but they are large, which made us modify the bracket on the housing and do a little work in the pocket. Turned out nice

I figured since it was Dan he converted it to FWD .

You know the man is a magician when it comes to cars.

I Highly doubt you will get any traction with those reae tires. but if your trying to set a new trend you may have something there

:thumbsup:
