Your not that far from a first ride. It might not seem like it but if you keep the progress up it will happen before you know it. Frank
I had to slow down progress on the car for a few weeks due to moving, but here's a couple pics of it leaving its first garage, and on to its new home (only about 5 miles away). It was wierd seeing it out of the garage, but it sucked it was on a trailer! Started back in on it this week, I am in the wiring stage now, then hopefully, first ride soon!!
Vegas,Man I'm moving myself in a couple of weeks so I reckon we'll both make greater progress(you more than me!)I do LOVE the stance of your Coupe, so damn right! Nick.
Thanks Guys! I will be posting more real pics soon of the final leg in my journey of getting it running!
First drive FINALLY!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWWAcujNdmw It was awesome except my hydraulic TO bearing developed a leak after 6 miles, so it is back in the garage awaiting the trans to come out next weekend.
I've been waiting all week to start cutting tomorrow and after seeing your bad ass I can barely go to sleep!!!! It's like Christmas Eve dude! Great all round look man!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!!-
A couple more. Thanks for the compliments everyone! I'm just glad the car is driveable! I[ve never builit anything like this in my life, and I'm just lucky it turned out the way it did (lots of thanks to the HAMB).
what an awesome ride!! I just bought a 31 coupe body and was wondering how much to chop it.. "4 looks perfect, maybe "5?? thanks for posting you pics and enjoy that ride, I'm sure you will.. allen
Thanks! Finally got it registered The weekend before last. Still doing some fine tuning, but it is awesome to drive. I live in Southern Highlands (Jones and Cactus area). Buffords: what an awesome ride!! I just bought a 31 coupe body and was wondering how much to chop it.. "4 looks perfect, maybe "5?? thanks for posting you pics and enjoy that ride, I'm sure you will.. allen I did a 4" chop and channel, and I'm glad I didn't go any lower! It is bad-ass looking, but hard as hell to see traffic lights! If it wasn't channeled I would have taken 6" out of the top though!
