Well Time for the Monday update, we have gone alittle bit over board on some items, but we are waiting on some parts and just can't stand to leave it alone. Enjoy

We got the differential from Strange today with the just released to sell 35 spline True Trac positraction. The Chassisworks axle housing is pretty slick lookin also.


Just a picture of the rear suspension completely TIG welded into position, with the Ricks Stainless fuel tank in position. They sure do sell a nice unit. We got this one with their Bosch fuel pump installed inside the tank.



We are starting on the interior panel designs and placement. We will be cutting out the complete interior structure to replac eit with these panels. Wait till you see the doors and the floors panels.



Enjoy

I'm trying, But if we don't get a few critical parts all this work will be in vein. We are working as fast as we can. I was here at 5:06 am this morning.

The BFG guys slowed us down with 2 dozen donuts for 5 guys and a dog. We each had 2.

So I borrowed the scales again yesterday. Most all the parts are on the car, We lack, fluids, plumbing, and lexan windows, exhaust, mufflers, driveshaft, light weight floor insulation, wiring and and few other small items. We also do not have the actual wheels and tires on the car

For not making any adjustments to the coilovers to move weight around it is coming out nicely. Our goal of under 3000 lbs without 260lb driver should be pretty easily done. Maybe 3100lbs with driver??????





Here is a picture of the start of the dash, We plan to get busy on the engish wheel to build the rest of it very soon. The interior panels are continuing.



I'm getting nervous about some parts we cannot live without.

We prefer to call it LUCKY..

As far as weight under 3000 with out driver should be easy. With driver, well I did not say who was driving.......With my 260lbs everything is tight.
