Default just some stuff ive been working on

FABRICATION IS DEFFINATELY COOL ! i have been having fun with this stuff, i cant give to much details, but i think there is some poeple that need some credit for this

thanks to burbank high school, and all the supporters of auto programs in the country !

sam @ bmcrace.com to get me my flanges, collectors to me in 3 days.!

the car has since been in hiding, and wasnt coming back out.

here are some pics .
sorry for the low quality its my phone .


tack and ready





this is the last time anyone seen the way it looked, we'll see how it turns out this time around..... see you guys in july.

what up wade, its definitely been a while man. your car looks insane ! whens that thing gonna be done?

ive been good. just trying this thing one more time, almost saved enough for the dog box so that should end my bad streak i had last year with transmissions.

the car is coming along, its alot of work but i love to do this stuff. its my adjenda that gets in the way most of the time.

list of things to finish :

body work 50% done
new front end stock 99+ late model.
manifold/ scoop
i/c fab and tubing
new engine harness and ecu courtesy of hondata
ignition
wheels and tires are here thanks to wil from exospeed
dog box
finished the shifter
guages
found some more trick ideas to lose another 80 lbs from the car.
2250 no ballst with me in it . pretty good.
nothing is cut either.
fabbing up another wt bar up front to hold 100lbs, and 2 50lb lead bars in the wheel wells.
alot of parts are going out to the chromers/ anodize while i setup a new press release for july.
