Man, TIG welding the entire rear was painstaking!
What a chore. Is there a reason you decided to TIG vs MIG? Just curious on your theory. Oh, Killer car! Vent windows forever :thumbsup: |
Tom, yes we had to support the car very well. The car was on a level steel
work platform then braced firm. This is all very important as we cut across the whole trunk. Not a place to shortcut if you want the car true. We also put the SFC in so this support helped that come out good. The car has ATS spindles, as for the welds being TIG Rich there is no real reason. The work was indeed tedeous, Ryan deserves huge credit for alot of great welding in awkward positions. It took alot of time & massive amounts of material. Peter |
How about some updated pics!
:unibrow: |
Hey Curtis, I saw you have to sell your car to bad that sucks! It is a good excuse
to build another in the future. The pics of the tub & Quadralink install are the most recent. They are also fabbing my intake tube & exhaust system out of pieces I brought them. It will be ATS headers to 3", 3" fabbed X-pipe (earlier post pic) 3" back to a set of 2.5 Corsa mufflers then full tail pipes. |

Looks like I might need to jump seat down and have a look at your project one of these days soon. Always fun to watch them coming together. |
