1979 "Transmarrow" Mid-engine LQ9 build

[Ddkeeler]

Well it’s been a busy couple of weeks outside of working on the car. My rotiform rse wheels came in about two weeks ago, I am really happy with how they look in person.

I had dropped off some material off to a machinist a month ago and finally got it back two days ago, I’m not really sure if a month is a standard turn around time for a machinist. I had him make 4 tapered sleeves for my ball joints and some components for my Bell cranks. I’ll get those installed and show you guys what that’s all about.



I wrapped up the main frame of the car and I have opted to get rid of the frame table so I can set the car at ride height with wheels on the car. My initial plan of being 45” from the ground to the roof worked out. I’m really happy with how low it is. Just need to get all the the ball joints connected to the control arms now.

I’ve ordered a bench mount planishing hammer, I am looking forward to getting started on the sheet metal. Changing gears for a little bit will be nice.
