Awesome thread, im subscribed!

 

...the pusher car!



HaHa!

 

Still not sure what im gonna do about the radiator!



...OH and if you look real close you will notice that I cleaned my garage!

 

Here is the steering set up.

The steering rod through the cowel.

 

The steering box...still need to add a lot of bracing!

 

The steering shaft even fits through the hole in the dash!

 

a quick photoshop of the steering and the wishbone cover.

Before...


after...

 

Order new one from Griffin with measurements what you need.

 

Change your number to 510!

 

If that vise is Harbor Freight China crap bring it back and swap it for a new one! theres a sign on the front of my local store that says all tools have lifetime replacement.I have already swapped a couple broken tools there with no problem if I had the receipt they would have given me a refund.

 

Go Man Go! Subscribed, Looks Badass!

 

Yeah!! It looks great! I hadn't been keeping up with this because of all the mental preparations I had to go through for the LSRU.

I wish I had slicks laying around! You've got all kinds of cool stuff laying around to play with. The stance is great!

Keep them coming.

Thanks guys...Ill have more in a day or 2

 

So they say the 7th day is for rest...Ha I work 24 hours every day!

I chopped the radiator grill

 

I like that. Was always told that I'll be able to sleep when I'm dead!

 

So then I found this flattened hood and thought I should see what it would look like. I had to reshape the curves. Still got a lotta work!

 

Im still not sure if Im gonna run the hood or not...but maybe

 

I dont now...maybe to much red?

 

some creative work was done on that roadster.

 

Thanks Midnight oil

 

I dont know...maybe im gonna scrap this POS and buy a new Mustang! Ha

Actualy I got the steering to work...so progress is made!

 

lookin good ,i'm like'in the hood.good job

 

That's begging for a lynching on here.

IMO, I'm tired of seeing the same old black/red combo (thank the rodent rodders for this) but I think it suits your car just fine. I would explore some other color options and do some thinking on this before deciding right away.

Would the body be straight enough to look good in black?

If you don't mind, I'm just going to steal your picture and play with it in PhotoShop a bit. Maybe I'll stumble upon something nice.

 

Norge?

Looks like you have a coupe body that was roadsterized.

I really dig those hinges. Any idea what they came off?

 

Great work.Well thought out.Subscribed.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.
