DAMN THAT LOOKS CLEAN. Keep up the good work, thumbs up here!

[MikeyRa]

Toby Crobus! That's shiny!

[promking]

I'm still here...
Working on either polishing the head or going to paint it... Either way that's this weekends project. Motor is almost ready to go back in the car.

[BozoBubble]

Wow, such attention to detail. This thing is going to be sick.

[pandapanda]

i'd bang in that, sick job man.!!

[promking]

I started assembling the car little by little.

( Mount is backwards lol)

Waiting on more gold plating to come back.
Waiting on a new carpet for the interior.

This weekend I should be able to have some free time to paint my motor, then I can start assembling that as well.

[DUTCHswift]

I love this car. Can't wait to see you start putting parts back in it again. The tank setup looks really clean too.

[KFC ONE]

Jebus... That looks like amazing.

It's been a while.

It's been a while but here's an update.

[promking]

Real progress has been made in the engine bay.

The rain tray has been removed as well as the battery tray and a few other misc spot welded brackets.


This is how I'm going to route my electrical in the fender well.

Templates for all the holes were made prior to welding.



So many holes, I am even going to shave the bottom of the radiator support.


Upon grinding misc spots for welding, I found this crack in the frame. Most likely from a previous accident.

I welded that back up, and started to grind it down... It looks like a Penis... I left it for now, because I think it's funny.

The coating that you can see on most of the patches is weld through primer.

Majority of the MANY holes on the radiator support are filled.

The strut towers will be stitch welded, and then filled so that way they are nice and flush.


I STILL HAVE A LOT MORE WELDING, and metal finishing to do in the bay before I can start body filler. Tomorrow I'm going to finish the patches, then start the frame notch.


I'll leave you guys with something that's shiny.

This car is absolutely stunning, love the attention to detail in this build!

[promking]

Yeah they are AVS traps, I've never heard a bad thing about AVS traps except for your experience?

Who else makes a chrome trap?

Thanks guys, plan on working on her more tomorrow.

You will regret using those chrome water traps. They leak like nobody's business. Get yourself some good water traps. Keep in mind that when you do replace them, because you will loose your patience with non stop low pressure that they may not be same size. Figure out that ordeal before you get too far with your hard lines.

Other than that, the project is looking very nice. I like where it is going. Clean car!

You've had issues with AVS traps?
