Naw dawg, thats Hellaflush!



AHHAHAHAAHHAA

that sucks tho.. for real.. but a widebody is a great answer to that question.

Well guys actually this has been the plan all along, Tyler bought these wheels years ago and I don't think has never had them bolted on this car, due to the fact they would not clear. The intentions are do pull the quarters front and rear to fulfill the desire look and spec.

As far as the being over weight, Let give you some idea of the differences in weight. A 1ft piece of 4x2 .125 wall rectangular tubing weighs just over 4lbs. A 1ft piece of 1.75 .125 round tube weighs just over 2 lbs. So for every 2 pieces of equal length 1.75" tubing it will equal 1 piece of 4x2 tubing.

So if you compare the weight of John's nova to Tyler's Camaro I bet his car will be lighter just due to the fact he will have less extras and More consideration for using light weight components.



This car was weighed on ride sticks in the rear that is why the weights are so weird. And there is an airhose sitting on top of it....

So I was gone most of August and half of September in Europe; London, Amsterdam, Prague, Paris, and Rome. Rodger did get a few things rolling when they had time.
They did the front A pillar down tubes of the cage, mounted the Tilton pedals, fab'd new engine mounts to set the engine back for use of my Sidewinder accessory drive, re-made the torque tube, and re-installed the drivetrain.

I only have a few pics, and they don't show much, but an update is an update.
Checking HRE wheel clearance.

New laser cut engine mounts

Same thing, different angle

Engine setback is now very much into the firewall, and at least 2 inches behind the front axle centerline

Torque tube all installed

Did something happen to the pics? I am unable to see them...

[TitoJones]

I can see them on 3 different computers here at work. I'll load them to another host and try again.
