I can’t imagine how great this car is going to feel sliding around corners.
I'm at the age where "fuck off", "fuck you", and "fuck it" answer most questions.
More parts cleaning and re-installation today. Brake lines, master cylinder, and pedal assembly.
I’m officially on team P2P as of this morning!!!
Tearing down the front hubs and brake calipers.
We will build it if it comes.
Looking awesome..!!! 😎 I heard there will be a KB sighting today!!!! 😎
Been a wild ride, but it got me here 😎
Cole lending a helping hand 😜
KB and my brother Weston sighting! Fun dinner. Glad they got to see the car
Needed a little modification on the air cleaners. The deck lid hinges were really close. Didn’t want them rattling. Cut them all up and Franz welded them back together at an angle. Great clearance now.
clutch adjusted. Fluids changed. A bit of wiring on the engine tomorrow. Doing as much as we can. All the little bits add up
Good call on the phenolic spacers. Will make for easier hot starts. Not sure why these motors like to boil the gas in the bowl, but they do.
Shop manager Nico checking in on the progress today
Tank painted today. Extra large rally tank. 80L if I remember right. We leak tested it this afternoon after Franz had to “modify” it to fit the larger tires.
pat got the rear end all dialed. Ready for wheels and tires in the rear.
some wiring got done in the engine compartment and a fluids change was performed.
we brainstormed interior layout tonight. Nav, trip meter, fire extinguishers, hydration system, horn, fuel pump switch, door panels, storage, etc. coming along!
Never make somebody a priority who makes you an option.
I didn’t say much about catching the car on fire in January while I was welding cage gussets under the dash. 🔥 ☹️
The welding paper/masking tape caught on fire under the headlight switch wiring. It looked wose than it was….
….I was able to replace a pig tail and do some soldering to repair the wiring today. Good to have that fixed.
