Epoxy primed the air dam / I think I got the industrial look I wanted

[David Sloan]

I got to figure out the sway bar. I want it to go thur the frame rails , I can't find the info I thought I save years ago on sway bars.
It might need to go over the top of the frame because of packaging
Lol. Damn old age!
I need to pick a size bar to start out with.

Rear end brackets welded up an ready to prep for epoxy.

So between rain showers I was able to get some epoxy on the rear end . One more thing done.

Ok........ well was going to be funny but kept getting to busy to deal with getting the pictures up, so.........to the good stuff!!!!

David called me back around thanksgiving about getting going hard on the car again. With how busy we both are and me living about an hour from him now, weekends have been the only time we have been getting to play with the car as a team again.

David had the rest of the car in epoxy by the time I made it out to help again. It really changes how the front looks from the raw.

We have been sorting out some of the things we left up in the air when originally designed the suspension. The sway bar has been interesting due to the space we left to work with, but seem to have that figured out.

A lower brace has been added between the frame rails, at the front, below the radiator. 2 additional bars were attached to act as both a skid plate of sorts and the mounts for the double sheer on the front lower control arm mounts.

We spent a weekend working on the brake lines for the car. I wanted to get each line as 1 piece from the master to the flex lines without any more connections then needed to minimize the areas that might have issues. That took a minute lol.

We have the rear end ready for final assembly. The brake lines are bent and fitted to allow 2 different paths for the exhaust and have some room to keep the heat away. The brake brackets took some thinking also. I think we spent 3 different weekends talking about options and what to do with the calipers and adapters when we finally just decided to make some beefy ones and loose the adapters that needed to modify anyway.

There are a few more things to take care of before it comes off the rotisserie, but its getting there!

Well onto what you really want.....some pictures!!!!

Somehow I have not taken a picture of the brake lines coming down and running with the front frame for the front brakes, but here are some pictures of the lines coming down form the master and headed back.

Thanks Wayne
Slowly but surely

I agree with Wayne, very nice work. Impressive engineering and fabrication too.

[Rick2964]

This is incredible.

[Zoomin]

Love the look of the light color, reminds me of the NASCAR look. Nice change from black.

[David Sloan]

Thanks guys
I hope to work on it some this weekend.

Yes I was burnt out on the black too. I was going to paint the car silver with blk. Trim but I think I will leave it in blk primer for a while.

Some pictures from a couple weeks ago of building the rear caliper bracket adapters and brake lines on the axle.
