rust repair

stitch welding






BBS wheels

wheel mounting saturday

most current picture


there is many more changes coming to the car but life happens and my daughter is my priority to spend my money on and unfortunatly not the car.
the car has some random rear springs that were free and uncut and camaro agx shocks. the front is blown struts with probly 3 coils cut off. saving for suspension and new wheels. thanks for having a look

Nice coupe....

damn nice coupe...

I still love that bumper lol. Great work so far

Love the various states Adam.

Any sound/vid clips of that revolver motor in "opera" mode?

ill have to look and see i think i have one from the first time i started the motor but not sure where it is. ill post it up when i find it

http://youtu.be/09eCQZN045c

i'm not sure if there is a way to embed the video but here is the first time i started it. we didn't really rev it as compared to when i have been driving it and running it right past the end of the tach. The previous owner said he had ran the motor to 10,000rpm on multiple occasions but since i only have a stock tach i don't tend to take it much past 8000 on a regular basis but definitely do take it past. car has no intake in this video and the exhaust is a 2 1/4 with some random 2 1/2 sections as that's all the pipe i had lying around. and a Borla oval muffler

thing sounds nuts!! I like!

Is that red bumper superior to the regular bumper? it seems so thin and frail

the red bar in the front is 1 5/8 .120 wall Dom pipe like you would use for a cage its there so that something is there behind the fibreglass bumper to protect my stuff at least a little bit.
thanks everyone for the kind words. i love this car its been so good to me.

So today I bought a set of weber dcoe 40's for a good deal gotta sell the datsun manifold and find my ignition stuff.
All I can figure so far is
Mains 140
Air 200
45 (idle)
50f6(?)
I know little about webers but my old man has tons of jets from working on lotus' and can help me with whatever. I will be making my own manifold. Got some research to do on how long to make the runners
