Just a quick update from the shop... Kelle brings us up to speed on the chassis and the body moving from the Autotwirler to the body jig we built.

The wheel looks great. I think you might be on to a new trend in the market. I'd like to see a Corvette Rally Wheel look a like in billet in the 18 to 20 inch range. Stockton Wheel and a couple of others will modify (widen) a steel wheel with custom offsets but your out of luck if you need an 18 to clear the brake calipers etc.

Thoughts on disassembling the body on our 1971 Olds "S71" project. This time, it's spotweld seperation 101. We'll feature more on this topic when we begin the reassembly of this car using an HTP QuickSpot II spotwelder. This time, we take a look at some of the disassembled panels and see how they came apart.

Next video - sparks fly!

Thanks Jody, this one kinda designed itself... it's a good looking car all on its own. Just needed a shave and a haircut!

The cutting tools came out as we began cuttin' up the Olds. This time, the rear wheel houses are removed as well as the outsides of the trunk floor. This is the ugly stuff!
