Nice looking frame kit from HPI. I emailed them months ago for price and info and they never emailed me back.
Do you have any plans to narrow up the rear, with a kit like ABC Performance?

JUST WANT TO CLEAR THIS UP. THE HPI. CUSTOMS FRAME KIT IS HIGHLY MODIFIED THIS IS NOT THE WAY IT COMES..

Just want to make sure no one orders one and thinks it will look like this! I bought the kit to give me a head start knowing I would have to modify it to make it work for me. still lots more to come on this!
this is what the kit started out looking like.

Wow I actually feel like we moved forward and getting the Belair out of storage early and being able to drive it to the auto show was a side track for sure, hoping to get focused and keep rolling so I stayed out all night to figure out the exhaust system. I think it payed off and this is what direction we are going now.

making a little progress with the exhaust and starting to remember how to tig weld thin stainless again. still along way to go to feel comfortable in all postions but making progress.still working on the frame mods and attempting to learn Cad.design on solidworks to make more parts and it is like learning a diffrent langauge to me. still trying to learn something new every day. Somedays it just seams to be what NOT to do!lol.

Looks real nice!
I know ProE (that's all I do all day) but don't know how to weld.

Eric as always nice work. When I saw the exhaust hanger on the frame I was wondering if you were going to put a drive shaft loop in there.

making some progress!!!! I think I have strayed away from my original goal of getting this done in 6 months has gone by the wayside and I just am going to focus on just building something kick ass instead of just nice. At least that is my new plan anyways!
