I realized that the thread I had started originally was mostly my introduction to the site, so I ignored it, so here's my build thread. Pics to come.

I actually like the battery tray idea. Having it open like that doesn't reduce the strength and you can keep the area below it clean and painted.

QUOTE(Root_Werks @ Nov 17 2008, 08:18 AM)  I actually like the battery tray idea. Having it open like that doesn't reduce the strength and you can keep the area below it clean and painted. I too agree. Meh, I'm not sure, I'll either leave it open as such or close it up. If I do leave it open, I'll be trimming it to right where it meets the suppot around the three sides, which is only about another 1/2 an inch. Like I said, if anything, it's part of my "weight reduction"! lol (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) |

Of that ignition switch you guys where speaking of, where you refering top the picture witht the dashboard already mounted? Or the one that is just newly painted? I ask because these are two different supports, one being originally from the car, and the other being from a Six.

Yesterday, I did'nt get to do much, as I got to the shop around 4:30, and it gets darker alot earlier now. I did, however, sand and clean up underneath the flares.
Originally, when we installed the flares, this area did'nt look to hot, with all the ground-down welds and such, so I once again wen to the Alumi-lead, applied it, and cleaned it up yesterday, to make it look more "seamless"....

Ok, so today, Thanksgiving, actually got to work for a few hours.
Finished completely taking the Powder Coating/dirt/old paint from the suspension (correction from before, the new suspension is from a Six, not a 911). Took of the rotors, and the bearings inside, turned out they where bent out of shape. Sandblasted that plate that mounts behind the rotors, and everything is ready to paint on Saturday or Sunday. Pictures to come, for now, more Turkey! |

Some pictures of the Six suspension. Scraped all the old Powder Coating off, will paint soon. Also took those shrowds, sandblasted them and such.
What do you think for the struts, green or black...... or red? (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/52.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/41.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/31.jpg) (IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/22.jpg) |
