Thumbs up Xmas in June ....

it wasn't Santa thou .... Scott Mock brought my subframe out to CO for the GG Nationals. Cool, this thing is a work of art, need to clean er up and get some epoxy on her and get it mounted so I can put the rest of the sheet metal on and line up the body before I weld on the quarters.

315's up front? Gonna try real hard!







Get to get to GG's on Saturday ... I'm borrowing the store's GoPro for some auto X fun, no guarantees about video ... first time!

Thanks Scott ....

Michael

Thanks guys ..... Scott drove out here to attend the GG Nationals and brought the sub with him, really appreciate that! I showed him and his buddies my Camaro and I think the car will do justice to his subframe .... thanks Scott!

I got to ride in a 68 Camaro and a 64 GTO today on the autoX course, Kevin told me no screaming like a little girl ... not a peep! Had a blast today, thanks guys!

Cool Update 7/23

Been some time between updates, my class just finished and I need to get back on my Camaro ... been so dang hot (upper 90's) I was prepping and cleaning by 0700 and it was 78 when I finished spraying. Of course it takes longer to prep than to spray, and I'm a little slow too, but the frame came out great.

I was thinking about powder coating ... didn't want to risk not matching the satin black on the underside, and if paint is good enough for Mark's cars, it's good enough for me. Just have to pick a durable paint that I don't have to worry about chipping.









Now I have to modify my chassis frame and fit this sub under and get it bolted together and get the front swing parts on and get going on the quarter. I have two more classes starting on the 29th ... just have to work after hours

Thanks for looking ...

Thanks ... I did some sanding and filing and got the sub smooth .... and then sprayed epoxy before it got too hot.

I am making an effort to get out there and get things done ... my back feels great now!
