Nice to see it coming along.

You gonna paint a bike to match just for the heck of it?

I just tricked out an older Trek hardtail, and when it was done i was like, "ewe". didnt quite come out like i'd hoped.

I missed it, did you go auto or manual? When i'm done after a 3 hour loop (and its been since last year, before my surgery) the last thing i want/need is more left leg work outs. But i put a T56 in mine. I will have bike mounts, just dont know where yet. I'm working on some trunk lid ideas, with the handle bars facing forward, parallel to the car.....

The car is Satin Blue from the Audi R8 with subtle Carbon Accents. The goal is not to be flashy and as a plus I won't have to wax it. Just run it through the touchless car wash a couple times a week. Just call me lazy.

Version 1 Tranny is 700r4
Version 2 Tranny is going to be a 4l60e with a Twist machine Paddle shift set up. ( already own it and can't wait to put it in down the road )

I have the billet pedal assembly to run a manual trans but I want a nice cruiser right now so Auto magic it is.

There are two bikes for the car.

Bike 1 is a Trek Ticket (Show Bike)
the bike is Silver with Blue Accents ( it's pretty bitchen looking)

Bike 2 is a Jamis Dakar 650b Pro
with Red Industry9 Torch Hubs & there new Trail Rims, Race Face bars, stem, seat post, cranks and a SRAM drivetrain.
this has become my new go to bike and I want it with me so I can ride after a Good-Guys Show.

With the DSE deep tubs what modifications did you have to do to keep the back seat usable? Or did the interior not get affected too much?

Narrowed the rear seat bottom and added some to the plastic interior panels

2nd Chance Camaro - Moser "C" Clip Eliminator with Kore3 Brakes

Good Morning all,

Prior to the car leaving for Kenny's Dennis at High Speed Welding installed the Moser "C" Clip eliminator kit on the rear Axle. He had
to modify the Kore3 bracket for the kit to work. But it worked and it's ready to go.

I can't wait to have both cars at home again

Marty,

Slight off-topic question: How is your garage floor coating hold up with all of the work you are doing?
