Hey guys.
Thought I'd give you an update on the shitbox
6 weeks to go faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaark
All we have to do is:
*new cage
*new tinware
*lighten interior
*paint interior
*new fueltank
*build new motor
*re-wire whole car
*re-assemble whole car
*dyno and tune
(Heaps of time LOL)
new bars in cage extra clearance for g/box starter etc
extra bars tagging back to 4 link
front legs
these new engine blocks have too much weight on them
brad thought he'd lighten it a bit LOL
cutting new plate to tie engine/ , g/box to cage
gotta love the fireworks show titanium gives ya
starting to get some stuff cleaned up and ready for re-assembly
"lime greens the new pink this seaeson"
So I'm guess stock your painting everything that was pink green? So the bet between westi and mike Waldron will now involve a lime green tutu? Or perhaps borat style mankini lol
Nice. Love the chinese safety boots brad
