Default GBodyGMachine Project Update *pics*

Ok, It is going slow. But now that I have the car at the shop I work at things should pick up. Here are a few pics of how the frame is going. I hope to have the rear suspension done by the end of this week.


Update: Started the coilover crossmember but didnt get very far, More to come.









Jeff

Yes i did. I just did it very simply. Cut up some scrap 3/16 steel and welded it in. Stiffened the frame a ton and also added some nice hiding places for brake and fuel lines. Really simple to to, I just ran the steel at an angle instead of bending it to create a square frame. Its more a trapizoid(?).
