Sorry dude.....

umm....welded the gas door in and warped it , so looks like i'm going to learn how to hammer out dents...lol

Bought some mustang 17x8 wheels and in the process of rolling the rear fenders to make them fit.

Going to work on it at lunch today. Hopefully start installing the fuel cell.

awsome. yeah when welding sheet metal you gota so a small section then wait and keep going. basically tack welding. should look nice on mustang rims!

This thing is awesome. What's that radiator from?

 

[i drift volvos]

I was trying to go corner to corner on the sheet metal. Guess i stayed on it too long. I also ran more voltage then i should of....but i was worried about penetration.

The radiator is from summit

Fuel cell is in. Planning on incasing by building a box to surround the bottom of the fuel cell and using sheet metal (with a door so i can fill up the fuel cell) on top. Safety first kids

Also rolled the rear fenders so the wheels will tuck without any issues.

Here is the radiator: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-380331/

I bought it in a kit. You'll have to notch the frame for it to fit.

Family came up to help me out. Got about half the car wired. Also finished converting the clutch to hydraulic, redrilled hubs, and built a half ass gauge panel.

Nice car, love all the work you are doing, terrible cage.

 

[2fast242gt]

[i drift volvos]

Cheaped out on the cage. Eventually i'll get it redone until then planning on bracing the crap out of it.

Dropped the car off yesterday to get it running. Kinda bummed i wasn't able to get it finished....but need it running. Hoping to make an event October 30th
