Crap… this is not working out well… lol. I tried quoting the post so I could just copy/paste but its not working at all since the original post was a quote from another forum… so my only option is to save all of the pics from it and repost them here… which will have to wait til I get home from work; unless anyone here is a member on OT and can figure out a way to copy/paste the posts. Sorry for the fail. ---

You cant just get us the link to the pictures directly? of whatever it may be? Or even throw the subject matter in google and get it from another source. ---

I’m all for junkyard builds, but some of the work is just pure laziness. ---

That one was actually reference somewhere in the thread iirc. The car itself runs like a beast (from the videos) and is a nasty car… it just would have been nice to see a little more effort put into some of the build. Bolts are not good structural components for making diagonal braces… lol. And I’m not sure why there is a 3’ ground wire looping around itself and grounding within 6" of the fuel pump (with a real crappy screw as a ground which WILL vibrate loose over time and cause the pump to cut out) ---
