Good stuff. Seems like u got a great deal on the cage. Mine is a basic cage and will cost that much.

Did u buy new lines for the hydro or used what u had for the cnc?

 

Not sure if it's safe to paint over but at work we use a Zinc coating that comes in a rattle can. It kills all the rust and helps prevent it from reoccurring, might want to look into that to help with your rust, if you care that much about it

 

epic update

 

Car looks amazing. Well done!

 

Man am i glad to see it back in SA!

I'll be in town for the holidays, i'm still right down 1604 so i'll have to swing by and check it out/give a helping hand if needed Edafe!

Good stuff brother keep it up, cant wait to stomp around @ Tx2k12 with you and the crew...and you thought last year was epic... haha

 

Nice progress... but what the hell are those black round things in your doors? They look like.... speakers... ;-(

 

great progress, cant wait to see this up and running..
Any pics of custom seat brackets?

 

epic pix

 

Same here bro.... First on the list thought is to clean up the bay and interior and get her ready for some paint..

Thanks bro

Thanks bro

yeah it was a partial sponsorship,, so def would cost more for others. I am very happy with it.

yeah you can't paint over that Zinc stuff. I am just going to go to town on the cage and front tube chassis and then paint it with some good primer.

Cool bro, let me know when you are in town.. I usually do things by myself cause I like it that way but you can chill/help....lol... And yup TX2K12 is going to be epic...

You are right those damn speakers.. they will be good asap trust me

Thanks bro.. I do have pic of the custom seat bracket a couple pages back..

 

my bad must of missed it, i havent looked back at all the pages again... Keep the sick build going

 

Its all good here is a pic of it, if you can't find it..





Going to try and remove the engine today, have to start working on the bay

 

Christmas is over, more updates right meow

 

 

Sorry about that guys, The holidays really got the best of me I think.. Well here is a little update, nothing to big.. Trying to get the bay,cage and interior painted very soon and then I will have a update with that..



The beer for this time is DogFish Head "Burton Baton". I really really like this beer, it is kind of strong so must don't like but I love it.. It is a oak-aged beer with a 10% ABV..



And this is one of the reasons why a update has not been done yet. I got my wife some Christian Louboutin's for Christmas.. But you have to make the wife happy first so they don't ***** about your build.... LOL



Like I said I made a to-do list for the car and engine. Stuff for the car is what is needed to get it ready for paint and the engine list is for some of the things I am changing..



Started off removing all the unnecessary brackets and removed the secondary firwall for extra room..



Then removed everything else, and used this stuff that my boy Eric gave me for degreasing the car. And man that stuff must have been Hulks's **** cause that ship got hella clean.. I swear you can eat off this thing now.. Also got rid of all the rust on the front tube chassis, time for some sanding and hit it with some primer..

 

Looks much cleaner... good stuff. Pic of the Hulk's ****?

Wanted to ask if this will be a dedicated drift/track car for you?

 

I'll get a pic of the Hulk's ****.....lol

And yes this is going to be my dedicated Drift car, but will take it to meets and shows to market for DPE Wheels.. So if running I will be at TX2k12.. oh yeah

 

you sir are amazing for this entire thread, thanks for posting

 

Got some primer on her.. Now time to work on the interior

 

wow

 

love it
