okay here is one picture the guy sent me

 

its not as bad as it looks lol the picture fooled me but the gray in from tape i guess

 

ordered my patch panels, im going to order the rocker panels next week and begin doing that next week or when ever.

 

hello, i did some rust repair today since i got my arches. i just got the metal cut out about an inch from where it should be to line up exactly but im going to use a flange to and just glue the panel on the hatch and go from there. i got the dash out as well. ENJOY

 

i didnt know how to add captions, but the last three still need to have the inner wheel arch remade which will be during the week progress. and the rockers are 2 weeks from now.

 

im doing more work tonight and im going to call a few places to see if they can get a half cut of a hatch rear end so i can just do everything with spot welds and do it right instead of making the parts out of metal. if any one near PA has a wreck hatch and near no rust or atleast a minimal let me know

 

ill be making fiberglass replicas of my doors next week or the week after.

 

looks like its going towards the right direction

 

Thanks. its getting there. today ill be doing more work

 

if you want to drag go with and add mods as you go along you should buy a 2006-2008 k24a2 the best motor to start with for your goals

 

but the k20a2 is a better motor hp wise. well i guess they are the same. yeah ill look for one of them, now im not failier with K but whats a k20 block and a k24 head, push hp wise? and tq of course?

 

no for n/a and for what your looking for you will make more power and torque across the board with the k24 every time

go to www.k20a.org best website for k series, do a lot of reading there, you will learn everything you need to know there

 

I'm going to boost it lol

 

here is todays work

 

here is a few of the left side ill get more tomorrow, and for the inner wheel wells on both side all i did was cut the rust out and didnt bother welding metal to it because its a race car not a show car lol but im still thinking about welding metal to the inner wells not sure yet. ENJOY

 

okay another update!. so we glued the panels today and started to use filler and ran out of time due to i was moving today. so i had started to sane the passenger sides filler work down and had to leave it but i dud rattle can primer it to keep most of the water from penetrating in to it since sanded filler is like a sponge. the drivers side was not sanded but we primed some of the bare metal spots. let me know what you guys think. o i forgot to add, you will notice we did not use filler on the lower quarter because we still have to replace the lower quarter and the rockers but thats going to be this weekend. so ENJOY!

 

here is the photos

 

so whats everyone think?

 

Its going prtty smooth so far gl!!

 

hey thanks man! yeah it going pretty good. Tuesday i start working on it again. im going to work on the rockers

 

so since today is going to be nice out i decided to take my bike out and ride it after work so i wont be doing any work on the hatch today but thursday thru saturday i will be doing work on it and there wil be big updates.

 

I think you're crazy!

I wouldn't have tried to save that hatch and I've pulled a few cars from death's door. Hopefully this thing was free.

 

no man have you seen the cars on here lol they are bad when people fix them. i mean this thing was not pretty but i have seen way worse and they got fixed lol. but this aint to bad and its getting fixed and its only the track car.

 

okay guys here is one of the big updates, the drivers side still needs to be worked on but i had primed it because sanded filler is a sponge when it comes to water so i had no choice but to prime it. the passenger side is coming about really nice. but it needs a rocker and lower quarter which is no biggie. its finally in primer and maybe a few spots might need a small coat of filler but ill find out more when i start wet sanding. ENJOY
