Finally got the car back from paint. Guy did the work when he wasn’t at work… sooo I got a nice paint job for cheap, I just had to wait 3X longer for it.

Trying to figure out how I want to keep the car moveable when it doesn’t have wheels on it. Either going to make a stand or weld some caster onto a cheap set of jack stands.

Next I’m going to drop the front suspension, get it cleaned up and painted. Id like to under coat the car while I’m at it. Any recommendations… thinking something in a spray can?

Guess its a little late for those, Going to try not crashing…

I agree! Its getting a gutted dash and two seats, I like to share the experience.

I gave 3 people a ride last time it was running and none of them expected what they got. I had to re install the “O-shit” handle b/c they didn’t have anything to grab …lol

can make a chassis cart like I made for the BMW, worked out great:

I was one that he shared the experience with, before when it was running. I’ve never been in anything as fast as this thing. It was great!!!

I’d like to see a second seat put in as well.

coming home the second if you need help!

wow :tup:

love the color :tup:

so im confused as to what the dry ice is used for… do you freze the paint and then it just chips away? surely you werent trying to do this, lol -

the dry ice makes the sound deadening material brittle so its easier to remove for a better cleaner look, and less weight.

lol @ the link

He was using the dry ice to freeze the deadening by the feet on the driver and passenger side. It comes right off using this trick.

You should try doing this to a classic muscle car…then sell it haha.

Build looks really good man, can’t wait to see the finished product

bedliner…

gotta love the green …did he spray the roll cage in green as well.

Got this idea from MPD47’s Drifting thread…

Started building one, this is the only pic taken a few weeks ago, Its about 80% done! It was a good proj. to learn how to MIG weld.

For how long?

Thx

Did come out good, It was so hard to pic out a color from a book.

At first the inside of the car was going to be a gray and the roll bar was going to be blk, but its all one color.

nice

hey man that looks really great, awesome paint choice and it looks to have come out incredible awesome rebuild/revamp. Motor plans?

Its going to be a boosted B18C, nothing crazy

Started going through my receipts and made this list of parts, what I paid and from where I bought them. I will probably add and take away as the build goes on. I didn’t list things like fittings, OEM parts, fluids, paint and labor which I have receipts for.
