DUDE EWWIWOP

how funny...my friend's got one in the works right now too..

but it's been sitting like that for 2 year

Ok so... Time for another update.


Started working on the fuel cell setup. It will be hidden by a firewall and then carpeted over.

First thing was to remove the old sheet metal with the Hypertherm 800 plasma cutter.



Then grind everything smooth.



Here is our cell. Its just a regular Black powder coated 15 gallon aluminum cell with a level sender.



Then I started work on something that is really going to "make" this car legendary. The custom sub frame that will also act as a complete chassis stiffener.

First thing I did was make the mounts for the main pickup points for the new subframe.

These are 1.5" od .095" wall DOM tubing




Then I grabbed some grade 8 washers, and sanded all the zinc coating off. Then tacked them in place.



I then tig welded them all up.



And bolted them in the oem location.



Then I measured where the stock Suspension arm pickup point was. It was located 3.75" down, and 3.25" inward of the chassis.

I then notched some tubing at the correct 50 degree angle, and tacked everything in place.



After that was all confirmed I tig welded everything together.



This took awhile.







I then attached all the super baller suspension components, and confirmed fitment.









More updates tomorrow. I hope you have enjoyed todays work.

Luke.
