My new 69 project - Lateral-g Forums

Jay Hilliard · #1 04-02-2010, 11:58 AM

Thanks for the comments fella's. I love my shop. The floor is filthy, but since the floor has epoxy coating on it, it cleans up really easy. I still need to run my air lines though. I've been saying that for the past year.

The car shell and floor, etc is very solid. Lower rear quarters have some issues, but I dont think I'll have to put full quarters on. I plan to get it media blasted this month, then I'll know.

The car did not come with a spoiler. It has original trunk lid and never had a spoiler on it. I just hate to drill holes in a lid that has gone 41 years as a spoiler delete optioned SS.

Very nice find

I like your idea on the build, sounds like it's going to be a sweet ride!

That's awesome Jay!! Good deal. She must be sikked to be able to drive it when complete. I WOULD!
Nice shop too.

Nice looking project. I hope it is as solid under the paint as it appears.
I like that you are leaving the spoiler off. While they look good with them, they also look good without.

NO Spoiler.. just my 2 cents

I'm with you Chris. My plan is not to have a spoiler. I get the subframe back from the powdercoater wednesday.

Jay Hilliard · #7 04-08-2010, 12:03 PM

I got my subframe and lca's back today. I think the powdercoating turned out well. I hope to get the car shell to the media blaster within the next couple of weeks max.

Looks good Jay. Keep us posted.

Another vote for no spoiler. Body shell looks pretty good, media blasting will reveal all!
