I have had several guys tell me once you drive a tube
frame car you will never want to go back.. kinda like driving
a car with Horsepower then trying to go back

Very cool stuff going on with this one

Wow man--that's serious progress! Love the exhaust and the tin work. Can't wait to hear that motor sing---make sure videos are a planned part of this threads future.

Thanks everyone...still have a long way to go but it is moving in the right direction.

have a little better control and more adjustment with the watts mount not on the rear housing if I remember correctly. Seems like I read that on the Ron Sutton thread in the suspension section.

Been awhile since I have checked into the site and things are lookin' good! Today is exactly 1 yr that we packed up and moved back to CA and my car has not exited the trailer once in that timeframe so it is good to see someone keeping the ball rolling! Coming here just makes it worse :lol:

Good to hear from you Tim. I was wondering what happened to your project. Time to pull it out of the trailer and get to work.

Stopped by to see the car today and the oil tank install is complete. We modified an existing tank by changing from 3 inlets to one 16 AN and changing the outlet to 16 AN. 3 breathers to 1 that will have 22 AN and will run to a catch can/ breather combo. Moved the drain to clear the frame and be able to drain the tank without making a mess.

We also bolted the doors on in prep for to door bar placement.

looking good Payton,, progress that's all a guy can ask for.

This car is unbelievable! The amount of engineering and fabrication is outstanding.

X2, Payton.
Are the rear suspension pieces propietary to Ron Sutton or outsourced? Same for the Watts Link? Are the rear shocks going to be mounted to the Watts x-member, as I didn't see any upper mounts? Have you decided on a specific brand yet?

Sorry for all the questions; just curious( and jealous!).

Any updates?
