Beautiful 68 Poncho you have sir. From one Firebird owner to another, hats off! I've been imagining your exact dash setup for my bird. Thanks for answering a couple of questions I had.

Thanks! Any more Questions, let me know. That's what we are here for.

Zie je daar!

Hey Rene,

I wish I could join the festival.
Prepping the Bird for another occasion. Ask Martin 2morrow. Have fun!!

[Moabdude]

Cliff, very nice!
I also love your wheels. Brushed rims with dark center. Very cool.

Lots of suspension upgrades there. Looks ready for the auto cross!

When the weather is good I'll be at both SNC on Saturday and KC on Sunday.
No auto-x I think.......I first want to get to know my car.

Car is at AJ's already for a couple of weeks to do some touch ups. I screwed up some paint during assembly the passed 3 years.......

Still curious.........

Bram, the event has to do with a circular gold part........

driving at the Zandvoort track was great again...I hope to see you both there next year (and that is with your cars and on the track!!)

Long over due post. Been busy with private/family stuff, good and bad.
Just finished a mod I wanted to do long time. Building my own hid head lamps with halo's:



Upcoming week we will be busy with moving house but after that I will change the front suspension and hopefully redo the entire fuel system.

[Ishmael]

That is awesome. I like how the ring for the highs are smaller than the ring for the lows. Bad ass.

[Lenie]

Cliff, now that is cool!

[FireBeater]

This super Sweet! I like this look so much. I would like to know how you made these, any pictures? I have see other halo lights which I like but none are projector HID with a halo.

Very, very cool.

Thanks Scott,
I only used projectors in the outer units, they have high and low beams. The inner units only have the ring. They are hooked up with the indicators in the valance so they also flash.

Thanks. It' really an in-house project. I used the lady' oven and backed the head light units to get the lens of using a sharp blade and a srew driver. I cut off part of the back to mount the shroud and using epoxy to fix. Sand and spray, gasket maker and glue for the rings, feed the wires through and put back the lenses. Also the brackets have to be widend to make it fit.

Engine was sitting on solid mounts and tranyy on poly, nice and thight. But it also causes a drop of the mill and a little vibration. Changed the motor mounts to original rubber again and forgot rule of thumb that rubber and poly don't go together. Transmission didn't like it at all.
Now try to find poly motor mounts for a Pontiac. Butler Performance came out with their own and just arrived yesterday.
