Okay this is the car in all its glory ugly as heck, but hey its an auto-x car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) This one is from my first season of auto-x with this car.
Heres what it looks like today. Made it even uglier (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) Here is the goal, I can sketch ideas, but I can not draw at the level of others on this forum. Thank you 914 Visulizer. and my black pen. Now if I could find a good front view. And the flares are not on the car since I'm not using GT Flares. But you get the general idea. |

For todays update, I am tired of drilling holes for this rotisserie. I should have pulled the trigger ran to Cleveland and picked up the unit Doug has. Oh well, the build is most of the fun for me.
So here we go. I got the welder out today, and my gas solenoid does not work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I have plenty of gas in the tank, it traveled down the hose. Switched to Flux Core, I'm welding thick wall tubing and plate anyway. Got the bottom frame done, welded up. I hate the splatter from Flux core. Got the front arms welded up, I might have to redo this one, I not sure how my math came out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Welded my caster plates on, nice penetration on these welds. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Started working on the stand offs for the bumper mounts, welded them up using 3/8" bolts. Test fitted them, and well the bolts are not big enough for the holes. So off to Tractor supply to buy 1/2 bolts. Welded on nuts to the top of the caster plates. Splatter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) And one side is done, lol, hardly. Lots of work left todo on this side even. I need to invent the clean garage app. You take a picture, of your garage clean, an it becomes the background for all your other garage pictures, that way everyone thinks you work in a surgically clean environment. I really need to get the 5 gallon bucket of straps back in the truck. And that little white table is my wife's project. I have been moving it around for 3 years now. Not judging, just tired of it being here, there, everywhere. Attached image(s) |
