Ahh...nothing like a "useable" GT4.


Keep at it Joe!

Raining here and the car is in the trailer. Nice to have it covered.
Today I started to paint the walls of the trailer, for now they are Kills white primer. Looking for lights, not sure what I'm going to do.
Ordered some LED's .

Getting with it on the paint. Got 2 coats of primer down. Cutting in the trim and thinking about a bright white gloss finish. I'm ready to do the floors and the lights just arrived.

Thanks Mark, this should be even better. The diamond plate is not screwed down yet but it looks great.

Got a couple of trickles coming for the ceiling but you will have to wait and see.
It was the cover for the vent, when I closed it the ceiling stopped.

Made me think of the headliner I put up in my first van ('73 Dodge Tradesman 100) ... one of those '70s era Indian print sheets that all the head shops sold at the time ... folks called it a rolling opium den (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)

Finished cutting the ceiling tiles. Need to sand the edges and drill some holes for the attachments. Oh and don't forget the paint.

It's going to be a 2x2 checkered flag pattern.

Almost done with the floor, would be nice to have the car back inside the trailer.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) Looks great, Joe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)


I need to get back to outfitting the interior of my V-nose. Stopped working on it when I developed a sciatica problem in 2019

I haven't been working directly on AR but I have been gathering some parts for her. Just about ready to move her back into the trailer. Got the nutserts for intake scoops. I need to tie the scoops to the bottom of the targa bar so now I can finish mounting them. It will feel really good to get some real work done on the car. I have also gotten some stuff for the plenum base and that should happen quickly. At least on the right side of the intake.
23,000 viewers, WOW. I am delighted to have such a nice large fallowing. Never thought I would receive such accolades. Kinda makes me feel all fuzzy inside.
With the trailer almost done things should go quicker on the car now.

Her new parking space.
Yes the tag has expired all I have to do to make her legal is put her back on the insurance and go get a new tag.
Wow, that's Falcon Epoch...

A picture of the plenum base. The plenum takes up a lot of space in the engine bay and it looks like it may be blocking air flow to the fan. This car should only run for a minute at a time, I really don't think it will ever get hot.

Attached Image

Bottom of the right side plenum, still need to do the seal. I have to redo the support for the engine grill hold down pin as it is in the way of the plenum base.

Good intentions...
Never got close to the car with a camera this evening but the bottom of the plenum looks great. This project is looking really good to me. Sure I am prejudice but this is coming from my soul. Ok, ok maybe I can get the picture, I'll try.

I am sorry about the quality of the picture but the content is of the upmost importance. Bottom of the plenum, really... We're talking Cold Air Intake be here, have you ever heard anyone say that???

Needs a ceiling and 3 walls and I am thinking about a plexiglass ceiling. The walls are a piece of cake I think I can use the same seal as we use at the trunks. I like the idea of being able to see in the plenum.

Hope that works.
Kool, I have a spot welder on order. Should make the rest of this a breeze.
