I didn’t realize how high up you actually sit in that thing, haha.
yeah its channeled
Hallock left that thing out there?
lower it
yes
no
but i do really need to get some hinges on the rear deck lid…it would make fueling up much easier
so today i spent most of the afternoon making a trim piece with stainless steel for around the gauges
you can see all the holes and hacks from over the years
so then i made a template
didnt take many pics of the rest of the progress but here is what i ended up with
That looks way fucking better!
+1
thanks dudes
:tup:
so after work today i decided to fix my loose seat.
cut a few pieces of this and drilled some holes
also cut this tab to go on the back so the seatback doesnt slip backwards under hard acceleration
also had an incorrect fuel cap on the tank which would leak slightly. ended up finding a bunch of old NOS caps and found one that fits way better
then it was time for coffee
So I just now noticed this thread. That is a VERY nice car. I’d daily drive the thing. In my opinion, the only thing it needs is a Flathead, but it’s probably more fun with the “Rocket.” How’d they adapt the valve covers?
noticed some sputtering and less than snappy throttle response so i decided to change out the fuel filter since who knows how long its been on there…
id say it was time haha
good as new…
lol, definitely time for a change. But maybe you should look for where that much corrosion could have come from up-stream.
lol the tank is like a billion years old. its safe to say I found the source.
New fuel cell mod? Or is that tank something cool that needs to stay original?
Use an old keg or something weird
