Here's where i'm at now;
I've bought the 30x13" ET streets, 1/4 skins, few other small body parts, A Harwood 4" show hood (from a friend, its all bodyworked and painted already, just scuff and shoot) Also a set of ceramic Hookers, what else?...Anyway, I'm going to set the car up to measure the housing width and then have it cut. I'm lookint at a way of reinforcing the Airbar...My friend that did the cage work is not giving it a big chance at the strip (afraid of the trans brake and tires). Looking at the mounts, i kinda share his toughts. I mean, i prefer beefing it up ahead of time than fixing it once broke...+ the damage it can produce.
The cage is almost done, i have a few things i want to add, nothing major. It was built to follow the lines of the car even when the top is down. I also wanted to retain some of my back space for the kids....(i have 2 girls 3 and 5...But my wife just let me know we've got a third one coming! Surprise!!! especially since she uses contraception...Hey, can you feel the power here... hehe) So i think that back seat is going to be kinda useless now! Oh well, so much for family rides i guess.....Unless...wait! Mom!?
I'm looking at a rack set up (any preferences here?) because i checked and price wise its almost even if i go to a Hperf manual box and replace everything in the steering system...I've gotten pricing on Wilwoods Dynalite kits for the front also. They seem very nice. The guy that bought the Carlo wanted the front brakes so i sold them to him.
Its moving ahead!
Lead.
Forgot...the structure (frame cowl interior) and complete underside has also been fully sandblasted and is now in epoxy primer. Much more pleasant to work on!
