Customs My shoebox chop

Thanks for the tips i have think to approx. the same with the r&p

To i have worked with the doors. I fitted the vent windows.



I have closed the holes under the vent windows and made it to fit togther with the windows



I made it on both the doors



Her's a test of the ventwindows



I have even fix the rear end of the passenger door.



Her's the car from the rear. I have begin to think of repair the rear stone deflector or maybe do a totaly new one insted and throw the old in the junk

I say make a new one....for me I would have to repair it, but you can make anything.

The car looks great. I can't wait to see the steering in action. I know you are thinking about those angles. Great work Stefan.

Lookin great Stefan,keep the progress pics coming!!!

 

Stefan, I just discovered this thread for the first time this morning. Half an hour later, I feel like I'm caught up. Your dedication and imagination are inspiring. I will continue to check back. You are what this site needs more of.

 

i say fix it. but it would be cool to see what you could come up with too!

 

Thanks for the coments

Her's a better pic of my bad stone deflector



I have not deside yet what i will do.

/Stefan

 

Can't wait to see you roll this thing out to see a side profile...

 

I feel so damn lazy after reading your post. Great job so far, I cant wait for a side pic.

Thanks for your coments

I have made a center to my new steering wheel



Now is must i do the spokes to the wheel

/Stefan

 

I have begin to make the rear stone deflector



i have made the angled edge




Next i will cut the inside and make the bended edges

/Stefan

 

I knew that's what you would do. I had a hard time seeing you fix that other one. It is a small enough piece, besides you are Stefan. You make stuff...

 

rad man!

 

Thanks for the coments

I work on my stone deflector today



I have made the outer edges ready



I have the inner edges left. I will weld up the inner edges and cutout after wards.

/Stefan

 

Wow... I wonder if there´s anything you can´t fix, hahaha!
Keep up the good work!

 

Thanks for the coment

The driver side



The both sides are welded on the easy areas the rest will be welded when i take of the body from the frame and can rool the frame to better placement

/Stefan

 

Great work Stefan! I always enjoy your updates and am impressed with your ideas and skills

 

Cool... The Beemer-tranny is just amazing. What's the plan with the engine? I saw a Blower.....?

 

Interesting placement of the rack. Do you have the linkage figured out yet, any pictures of it in action?

Where will the exhaust exit the motor and how will you clear the rack? Under? Over? Fender well headers?

Maybe you haven't thought that far out yet............

I'll stop with the questions, I just am enjoying this build alot.

 

Thats crazy man! You must have an engineering background to come up with some of this stuff! I love the use of all the euro parts ,nice job!

 

Stefan, Impressive work. I am watching to learn whatever I can. Thanks for sharing your project.

 

Thanks for the comnents

I have figur out how i shall do with the steering
I shall use a adpter thats move out the steering bars so they will be aprox 16" long


it will look like this but not moving to the other side

I'm working as engineer so that good to have as background

/Stefan

 

I'm so glad that Stefan has yet to master the English language. At least I can do something better than him. But then, I can't speak Swedish at all. I don't know if I read it on this thread, or on another, but I'll say it too...

Your shit makes me want to throw rocks at my shit.

You do some amazing work.
