AJ I am blown away by your skills and your ability to think outside of the box. Every time I look at this thread I see so many cool idea's and it's hard not to "Want" to do some of the stuff your doing.

In between all of this work I've been doing some body work on the hood, upper valance and roof getting it pretty close so when its ready for a real body guy it won't be too far off and should help move things along quicker from paint jail. For not being a body guy I'm really happy with how it came out so far.

I've been going back and forth on where to put my fuel filler since the Vette tanks are kinda high behind the driver seat. I didn't want to have an external filler, but thats what worked the best for me. I had an EMI filler, but I wanted a locking one so I ordered the RideTech unit. Safe to call it a unit as its huge and heavy. On the scale it was over a pound and twice as much as the EMI that I ended up using, because of the weight and size. Mostly the weight lol. With a modification to my bead roller a few years ago I made a perfect circle to recess the filler cap. I cut that up from version 1.0 and welded it into the driver quarter. And as with the rest of the metal if was pick and filed to fix the warping. https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...4e5a40b.md.jpghttps://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/02/IMG_...b9b101a.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...7cf8111.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...ad56749.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...d3825b5.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...cbc59cb.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...b7ad28f.md.jpg I also received my LED headlamps, so I got those test fit then boxed back up. https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...9f02b5e.md.jpg I also found a place for my ABS module and BPMV. I made a bracket to mount the modified stock bracket to and then mounted the whole assembly behind the passenger fender in the wasted space. https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...e68c4f5.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...95d80a1.md.jpg https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/15/IMG_...3665ef1.md.jpg |
Ok aside from all that great work you've done your decision on the fuel filler door is killer.I hate fuelling up my car from the stock location.That just looks mean.Really enjoyed seeing this build coming along.That carbon fibre in the roof is also killer...cheers

AJ, outstanding work as usual.
What's the story on the 55 Nomad in the back? https://j.hmjimg.com/2021/08/02/IMG_...1bc6618389.jpg |
Any updates on the project?
