How about some pictures of the paint/assembled fenders?

(PS, we are NOT happy with the paint. None of the stripes line up, the stripes dont wrap around the door or into the jambs, the firewall/engine bay was left in black epoxy instead of a proper two stage paint so it has no durability (we have to strip it back apart) and the paint SUCKS. It is orange peeled horribly, has more dirt in it than our floor, and the list goes on and on like dry spray under the rockers(didnt lift the car up to paint under) etc etc.

Plus its not done, where is my hood or trunk? Not painted yet! Won't ever reccommend this guy, especially not for the price. But we will work through it........

By the way the doors are not latched in any of those pics, so thats why it looks funny.

I never posted pics of what we were doing for the steering wheel/shifter.

We aborted this as now we are going with the caddy column and tap shifter so the wheel is up for grabs now with the shifter, but it was cool at the time.

Originally the customer wanted a flaming river waterfall wheel, which does not have a standard style mount that you could sandwich the TCI paddle shifter into (it is recessed into a custom adapter)

so we remade the whole steering wheel center assembly and the adapter, and sunk the paddle shifter into the two to hide it. Then, because the center of the wheel is so large, we had to make a window so you could see the display.

I need to take a better picture straight on to the wheel, but it is in the perfect spot for your hands, and from the driver seat all you see is the plus/minus symbols of the paddles. The rest of the paddles are behind the wheel. And with the whole thing brushed it looks awesome! I think it would look great in black anodized if you took the leather off and then wraped the wheel in suede after for the race look?

Looks good Tyler. Good job.:thumbsup:

Thanks alot! Feedback is always great. I can't wait to turn the key on this one. Even with all the Speedtech stuff we have installed, I havent gotten to wheel it around myself yet!!!

Can't wait to shake it down.

Looks like good work! I like the style of the wheel. Who is the manufacturer?

64pontiac 01-23-2011 04:58 PM

The wheels are Rushforth Rated X, the steering wheel is flaming river waterfall

Man this is a phenomenal build man....great attention to detail. Love that paddle shifter setup.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the color of the car?

Thanks for getting back to me 64Pontiac! I guess I should have specified the steering wheel, but you got it.

Tyler this car is amazing! I love everything you did to it. Awesome work. I can't imagine figuring out all that wiring. Nice work.
