We have been very busy with Tim's 64 over the past few months. Here is the picture recap of what we have been up to.
Finished up all of the metal work on the nose of the car for now. Headlights and grille still to come. http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...psa61668bc.jpg http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps2c4e781a.jpg Trans and driveshaft tunnel for the 6L90 http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps79fead5e.jpg http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps1f7abbff.jpg Wanted to try something different than the standard smooth or bead rolled look for the firewall so we fabbed this up. http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...pse775944f.jpg Removed the stock piece that looked like it was blasted with a shot gun http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps6762c2e6.jpg And welded i the new panel. http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps754d8d8b.jpg |
Here is a look into the engine compartment and how it was built.
Rough mock up and initial panel fabrication. http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...psc4ca2f0d.jpg http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps115f73d2.jpg http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps054f7bdf.jpg Close out panels around the radiator http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps6baa28b6.jpg http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps844e6188.jpg Added some indentations around the mounting hardware and the new hood latches. http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps83000869.jpg The completion of phase 1 of the inner fender... http://i563.photobucket.com/albums/s...psad1517ef.jpg |

A few more pics of the underhood fab:
Adding some detail recesses to the inner fenders http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3812/1...f542e9e3_b.jpg IMG_7547 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3740/1...bdee7388_b.jpg Picture 315 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2842/1...7202d00a_b.jpg IMG_8674 (2) by Roadster Shop, on Flickr We also decided to smooth and simplify the windshield cowl panel for a cleaner look: http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2837/1...229bfdda_b.jpg IMG_9465 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3822/1...09c9e90e_b.jpg IMG_9428 (2) by Roadster Shop, on Flickr |
One detail that seemed to scream out to us from day one when we got the car was the awkward intersect of the forward corner for the door, cowl and fender.
A few tape lines later and we had a plan to bring it all together a little more elegantly... http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2847/1...1121fd5f_b.jpg door by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5534/1...e40ea2b7_b.jpg IMG_9464 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3686/1...4302c38b_b.jpg IMG_9725 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3825/1...88291e69_b.jpg IMG_9949 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5506/1...1d01aaef_b.jpg IMG_9911 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr Looks like it should have been this way in the first place... http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5532/1...69f9618a_b.jpg IMG_9904 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7392/1...9fb37af1_b.jpg DSC_0071 by Roadster Shop, on Flickr |
