We see so much metalwork on here I like the wood look Chad. :unibrow:



Oh and nice tool btw. :cool:

I couldn't get the beads to flow like I wanted, so I didn't show the welds! Thanks though, I think. :lostmarbles:

That there was real smart like

My headache is a little better. I have to say this is one of the more challenging tasks so far. Fitting 4 hoses into such a tight spot was a challenge. I still have some work to do to figure out the assembly sequence. You see, there still isn't a dash in the thing yet. I guess this is as Greg would say HOT RODDING! I'll let the pictures tell the story. Enjoy!

As always, comments good and bad are welcome!

Since Skip was giving me a hard time about using some wood, I had to try and step up my metal work game. This tool should help do that.

Let's see if my imagination can keep up with it's capability! Stay tuned!

What good is that going to do you!! Everything you've built so far is round.....



HAHAHAHAHAHAHA



Nice tool and that's not a personal statement) !



Pretty soon - we're going to have to have a Baileigh Tool party at SEMA! Shane's just killin' it on Lat G lately. They have nice stuff!

Now, to wire it up and get rolling!

Chad,

It's been so long ago now...maybe I was really encouraging the wood look. :waveflag:

:D

Actually, I only give guys building Camaros a hard time. :stirthepot:

Plus GW, Jerdawg, RobFerd and... :BlahBlah: :BlahBlah:


:lol:

While everyone and their brother it seems is getting ready for SEMA, I hit the garage and got some progress made. Time to start the under hood sheet metal. First up are the rad close out panels. Here is the prep work.

After that it was time to try the new brake out. Man is it nice. The clamping power is really unlike any other brake I have used. On some test pieces I could bend a 3/16" Flange on a 3/4" wide x 8" long piece of 16ga. You don't know how tough that is unless you have tried. Well, here is the result of the first go.

More to come, thanks for checking in!

16g work looks good chad, but 3/16"???? wow, that is impressive.
