Fantastic job bent!!

Glad to see you back posting. Nice work :thumbsup:

Are those resonators in the exhaust prior to the mufflers or just an expansion chamber of sorts?

Yeah, those are resonators. The customer wanted them to hopefully quiet it down some.

Thanks for the props guys!

Mark

I may be going that route also bit I was thinking of having them out back on either side of the gas tank.

WOULD SMASH! :yes:

Matt

It's even better in person. :thumbsup: I stopped by Marks shop on my way back from Speedway engineering. He has done some really nice work. Sharp guy with a nice clean shop and good attitude. :D

Thanks Rob!

It was a pleasure talking with you and putting a face to the name. Keep me posted when that bad boy gets home from Illinois :cheers:

Mark

I'll second that

Got a few more updates. Ben plugging away. All the small details are starting to add up. Got the A/C dryer and A/C plumbing done. Got the radiator mounted and plumbed. Finally got the brake pedal finished. I had to make a hole new pedal and location because of the booster set back and pedal ratio change. Reused the old brake pad. The customer still wanted factory rubber and look for the brake and gas. We also made a great choice in stepping up the rear housing to a full floater. This was Baer Breaks first floater for a 15 inch rotor. To keep it simple and smart. I took the housing up to Frank at Speedway Engineering and had them instal the ends and true the housing up. Those guys up there are awesome! Frank is supper cool and very smart at what he dose. My wife took a couple pics of me and my 3 year old showing him how to weld.

Great work Mark! :thumbsup:

Nice work Mark!

Thanks Guys!:woot:

Looks good buddy. Lots of cool details.

Is your kid really 3 years old already. Man Oh man

I really like the way your ran the hard lines for the AC. Do you braze the fittings, tig or form them?

Are you planning on fender well liners to protect the plumbing?

Thanks man!
Yep my mini me (as the wife says) is 3-1/2 next month. Time fly's

Thanks. The a/c lines are s.s. and silver soderd together.

I did make a cover that protects everything at the fire wall. The rest of the plumbing isn't in line with the wheel rotation and felt it wasn't necessary.

Damn fine

Thank you Sir:cheers:

Mark

You do Excellent work! :thumbsup:

Looks awesome....

I need more details on how you ran the line through the frame... :)

Thanks! I try but it doesn't compare to some of the other guys on her.

Thanks ... HAHA!

Really he is 3 already - how the hell did that happen ???

Not sure either... What I don't believe is I have a 10 moth old too!:willy:

I didn't know "moths" live to 10 LOLOL

Just wait my girls are 11 going on 12 and my baby is 9

I just recently learned a new term - "Tween" - not yet 13 but close enough.

What ever! You have to much time on your hands to be checking for "moths"


Yeah my oldest is 3-1/2 going on 15 "Tween":willy: . Some days I think he's to smart for his own good

Get a color tv with a remote for the bedroom.... and that will quit happening...:lol:

That's the problem. I do have a color tv with a remote in the bedroom. :unibrow:

Get her those new "50 Shades of Gray" books! :yes:

Any Updates? :unibrow: Starting to get the shakes,:willy:

Al,

Ben busy on other projects at the moment. Funny you ask. I'll be back on it tomorrow. Going to try and finish up the engine bay and front close out panel.

Thanks Mark

It's been a bit. Have a few updates. The air intake set up is done and been slow and steady on the front inner fender wells and close out set-up. Time consuming and a pain in the A!

Mark

Few more of the fenders and panel ideas

Just about have the front section wrapped up

Looks really nice Mark. I like the open engine bay concept that you are showing here. It show off that motor and it will be easy to work on if there is a problem.

There's still a peace that's going to cover the radiator and front half of the bay. I was going to put a hole for radiator cap axcess,but the customer wants it covered for a cleaner symetrical look. It will be easy to remove for matinace as well. I'm trying to design it so even when that cover is off the bay still looks good and not look like It's missing something

[QUOTE=bentfab;443920]I can't wait to see it when it's done. I am certain it will look nice.

the above link looks like the panel Foose did on the 69 Camaro's is that the look your customer if wanting ?

Yeah! I just redesigned it so it dosen't go that far into the bay. Now I'm trying to figure the design lay out.

Crappy pick but here's a shot with out the panel

Looks nice - i can't wait to see what you come up with. I remember doing the layout of the inner fenders and core support are on the truck. I must of made 10 different version out of chipboard.

wow beautiful work being done can;'t wait for more updates
