Got started gutting mine this weekend.

Should be a fun time. Go get yourself one.

I had an over/under on when I would see this build start ;-).

Looking forward to it.

Please be next, we'll be needing some hair product on the island.

@Dylan W. do you have 14" or 15" wheels? Can't imagine the 14" tire selection is vast.

 

[Dylan W.]

I have 14s...with 27" general grabbers. I gotta great deal on tires thanks to @dackers

I had plenty of 14" wheels and didn't wanna buy any.
Most, are running 15s though. That'd probably be better, if you're gonna buy wheels, I'd get 15s

But, keep in mind, we could share/swap wheels and tires if you keep the 14s.

 

[Will Carter]

14's in the rear. 15's for the front. Like the cool guys in TORC do it. ('cept they're doing 15's and 16's)

 

[Will Carter]

Everybody running around a 27?

 

[Dylan W.]

What's your gear ratio?

 

[Dylan W.]

14's in the rear. 15's for the front. Like the cool guys in TORC do it. ('cept they're doing 15's and 16's)

I thought about that...kinda like a 4 wheeler or dirt bike. Its not a bad idea, since your grooving will be different front to back, ,interchangabilty from f to back won't be an issue because it won't be happening.

Some guys are running bigger tires, but I don't know their gearing, and I didn't see it as helping them either.

I felt like my tires were great..with my skilsaw grooving. They hook good and being small circumference they might spool up a bit quicker on my gear.

 

[Will Carter]

No idea. Slow.56

I thought about that...kinda like my small penis circumference they might spool up a bit quicker on my gear.

Sorry bro, not really!

 

[Dylan W.]

Wrong thread @Paul and we probably won't be discussing transgender midget porn bathroom usage either.

Beers and brolite tonight. Got a little more done.

Going to do a stock rebuild on the engine since it seemed to be running on steam.

Took her to the car wash so she'd feel pretty.

 

[Dylan W.]

What's up? Are you making any brogress?

 

[Will Carter]

Should have motor back from machine next week or so.

Cut some more sheet metal off like door guts and front clip stuff.

 

[Will Carter]

Motor parts are here.

Bent some tube tonight.

Would have been much easier to start with a trampoline!!

 

[Will Carter]

Got the hard part done. Now to just copy it for the other side and start connecting the dots.

It's been a long time since I've built something in the driveway. Still sucks.

[Will Carter]

A little more work done. Trying to keep the cage tight to the roof so the roof won't look fugly the first time it smashes in.

 

[Will Carter]

Little more tube work...


Hard mounted body...


Seat mounts almost done...

7.5 cleaned out for some 4.88's. Or maybe even 5.13. Whatever @Cperry is going to sponsor me...

 

[Cperry]

Ya ya just drop it off when you are ready for the regear. Only cost is 25 minutes seat time, I will need the full coverage insurance policy

 

[Will Carter]

You don't even have to do the work man. Just mail the gears and kit.
Things are looking good for local events next season.
You can drive a heat race for some 4.88's.
