Introducing - Project 1/2-TRAK

[Damn True]

been a month, I've been cleaning up getting ready for more cutting/welding, what have you done?

Ive been fitting the rear x-member to the frame rails. I will probably do my final test fit of the whole system on Friday. Then the stuff goes out for powdercoating.

[Steve68]

Sweet, NOT meaning your sitting around on your arse,

[larknut]

Hooray for progress! Not that I can say much since I haven't really started anything on my own car. I live vicariously through other members build threads especially the at home/garage builds. Keep it going True.

Any new progress?

[Damn True]

Any new progress?

Ugh, no.

Thanksgiving
Changed jobs (same company different role)
25hrs of Thunderhill
Christmas

Far too many cocktail parties, dinner parties etc.
Far too much money spent elsewhere.

[796spdbu]

Sounds like you have been busy..I dig your car and was just curious...

[nicks67camaro]

Maybe after the new year?.....You know these things don't build themselves!

Elves! I need little Camaro building ELVES!

[Steve68]

Elves! LOL!,

Went to the orthodontist with the oldest, she now lives with us she'll be 11 in Jan,

the fiaence work for the ortho and the pedo Dr., the ortho guy had a Chevelle in college 67SS,

He asks why my Camaro's not done, I told him poor "time management" he questions that, I said ya, "poor time management",

didn't you see the 3 that walked out, which was my daughter, her daughter, and her, "that my time eaters right there" he busted out laughing!

but, better spend time with them now because in 3-5 yrs, all the'll want is money and be gone with there friends,

[Damn True]

You should'a told him; "Because I'm paying YOU!"

Oh that was the other thing. We had close to $10k worth of dental bills this year as well, and 1/2-again that much in Vet bills.

Dental work SUCKS! Is your pet ok?

[Damn True]

Dental work SUCKS! Is your pet ok?

Yeah. Roxy is a bullmastiff. They have the same amount of teeth as a normal dog but a much shorter jaw. Thus the teeth are really crammed together. As they get older they frequently have dental problems and require having a few pulled. K9 dental work is as expensive, if not more than human.

[nicks67camaro]

Oh good. I hate to see sick pets.

[arue333]

Hey! Where's the progress photos??? You know my addiction won't feed its self....

[larknut]

Its been awhile. Just checking in! How's the 3-link coming along?

[Damn True]

Haven't touched the car in quite a while. Time & $$ out of stasis.

The good thing is I have good ins. for a while longer, but since the G/F works there, ins cover what they send, then the rest gets written away, good to have people in the business,

But I'm with you time and money, but I have started to assemble the LSX motor, bottom end coming together nicely,

saving money for the G bar kit and getting ready to install the DSE front coilover set up, ,

[Steve68]

I'm bumping you back to page one for the shame you'll throw up some updates, or a basic, just showing everyone, pic nobodys project is more stagnent than mine,

I'm also bumpn' Tony's P/F Project car too,

Then when I make a post of my car, you guys can be a jerk to me, for updates! lol

[XLexusTech]

any updates

[Damn True]

Just wrote a HUMONGOUS check to finally, finally, FINALLY get the front and rear landscaping done on the house. That means two things:

a) Sorta broke again.
b) I can at least think about nibbling at work on the car.

Trying to figure out the axle dimensions as seen here:

I may have some time next week to get under the car and figure out the final fittment of the last few bits of the 3-link so I can send it out to get powdercoated.

Ugh...been a while...a long while since I've made any progress. It's been frustrating to say the least.

Had a dream earlier this week that Larry, Steve and Chip Foose showed up on my doorstep to take the car to finish it...but if dreams were nickles....
