They really come in handy around the shop.

Awesome color. Looks great.:thumbsup:

We are working very close with Clayton Machine Works on a few new pieces. Clay is GREAT to work with and shares the same passion and vision I have on this project. We had a set of his new style window cranks and door handles done in a Black Anodized Finish. Ours will be slightly different for a "one-off" look but Clay wants to hear your feedback. If he gets a significant interest he will offer this finish. What do you guys think ?

Thanks for your help !
I am going to run a Flaming River Column with a Billet Firewall mount that I am having Black Anodized. Nothing like cutting a hole in a freshly painted firewall ! Unfortunetly this is the way it panned out.... We molded the frame mount / Firewall area first for a smooth look.

ps.... did you know the control arms were orange under all that black :rofl:

I gota say that's a great looking firewall:thumbsup:

HRBS 12-28-2010 11:37 AM

Thanks Bradshaw. Here are a few progression pics of items I think might go unnoticed.
Remember the "theme" of this build is to be subtle and not to go over-the-top in fabrication but rather attention to detail.

Firewall:

Yes Mark we did. I was originally going to fill the grills only but after some thought I came to the conclusion that this car and others like it most likely will not run autocross in the rain, go to a car show in the rain, or taken out for a sunday cruise in the rain. So I removed the mechanics of the wipers and filled it. When detailing we always use Rain-X and other water repellent products that shed water anyway. I've been caught in the rain a handfull of times coming back from such events where the rain-x worked perfectly for the short drive back.
