hehe, well, i dont think this "extreme" enough or diffrent enough for speedhunters to be interested tho ;P

[rice4life]

A lot of speedhunters aren't extreme, just very tasteful, and/or crazy.

I think that this ticks all of those boxes.

first job with the new welder:
make a rack to put the welder and plasma cutter in so it dont have to stand on the floor
cut and welded some 25x25 mm alu square tubing.. this gave me a chance to test the new welder and figure out the controls before welding car stuff


after that i welded on the last wiggins clamp on my turbo - IC pipe , so now the pipes is finished to

[volvo242]

yupp, new wiring harness for the whole car has to be made.. the stock **** is way to heavy and looks like crap ;P
