Painted the Track Rat..
 

And it was never racking.. trying to do something "different" is a pain! Now I know why every other car is red. :)

Was going for '53 Porsche Azure blue.. but Dupont couldn't find the formula.. thier first try was WAY dark. So we used the Atlas color chart and found what we thought was close.

Turns out it's brighter.. like a darker Laguna Seca blue.. it's pretty and when it gets kitted out with trim/wheels/stuff it will really pop.

Next week we assemble Track Rat and Jon at Best Of Show will lay down the CF and blood red graphics.. we will also be doing a tatoo on the lower front fenders.

Looks great Steve! :thumbsup:

That does look great, and nice to hear from you again. :thumbsup:

Looks good. I agree the trim and wheels will set it off.

That's a pretty cool lookin color. Definitely different. :D :thumbsup:

Nice
 

:thumbsup: LOOKING GOOD Mr, Steve :thumbsup:

Color looks cool.
What are the build plans for the car again? Does this car have a tci or chassis works suspension?

Chassisworks stuff.. The front will be thier sub with the new spindles they showed at SEMA. Brakes are Wilwood.

The paint has been waiting for Chassisworks new cage to arrive.. but I finally got tired of putting it off and painted.. the next day they called and said it was ready to ship. lol.. we should be able to weld it in without hurting the paint since the cage has a nice design that makes this easier.

Forgeline wheels (darker centers/polished hoops).. 582 fuel inject high-rpm big-block tied to a a T56 Magnum back to the 9-inch. Later we will upgrade the rear to Chassisworks new floater.

Glad to see this AND you have been revived!


Love the color.:thumbsup:

Wow...

Really like the color and motor choice.:cool:

What led to the EFI 582 being used?

Also, what are the specs on it?
