So much work in making a single bracket. But it does mount the fuel cell, ice tank, radiator, and the transmission cooler along with the floor skin.

The bracket will be removable. I just need to put on 2 more feet, drill my holes and in the frame and mount her all up.



I am going to shorten my sump dogleg in the frame. Will bring the radiator/fan up 2-3".

31.5" between rear minitub down bars. My 15gl fuel cell and 5gl water tank came in at 32" before mounting tabs. So I had to chop chop.





but they fit with room to spare for my mounting tabs coming tomorrow. And only lost 2gls capacity.


I can even slip the battery in.

Flipped the rear shocks. Reach around the fuel cell and turn the knob.


Going to build a floor frame for everything to bolt to and skin the rear floor tomorrow then start mounting turbo, down pipe and motor parts.

Those that care and are still following, I am stuck home like a lot of you are. Government/military said no flights into Afghanistan. No idea how long this gonna go.

But I'm about to get a lot done!

No... now it looks like you had a convertible, but decided you needed a hard top, THEN cut the damn top off to make it a convertible.

That's the 1st thing I thought right after I cut the top off

Today's progress



















Racecraft Inc k-member is a fucking tank. A-Arms are RCI also and very well built. I installed their CC plates and had to drill strut tower for 4th hole. Went ahead and installed manual master cylinder and Maximum Motorsport brake pedal in an automatic car's pedal box. Had to drill strut tower for brake line to pass through too.

Shorter a-arms meant I had to chop on the brand new Flaming River rack to get tires to not toe out. Worked out easily enough.

Rack, bumpsteer kit, shaft, column and steering wheel in and centered.

Dash frame is mounted for what I hope is the last time I ever have to fuck with it. Dash pad can come in and out easily.

Driver seat in but needs to come out for more adjustments and carpet which can't go in until wiring...maybe.

Deck lid needs adjustments but it's on.

Need to raise the whole car up on jacks for trans crossmember. But might pull motor/trans to close off the firewall holes.

Tubs are fully sealed in and painted.

Started trying different LED light kits for service work lights under the dash, hood, and rear end. Powering them with Milwaukee m12 or m18 batteries so they are on their own system separate from the car.

Always need 1 more inch.

[KBScobravert]

Home


all the bars. satin black vht was the right call






seam sealer going on tomorrow.



Should be able to get the low


was about an inch from having k-member bolted up. Something on my dolly arrangement is hitting the body or I would have had it bolted up in the car this sterno.
