Project' Rabid Goat

[69*Goat]

I ordered all new wiring harnesses today, and a set of Speedhut Gauges. I will be pulling the dash this weekend, as well as 1 axle so. I have to tell Tobin at Kore3 which rear end bearing I have so he can send me the correct rear disc set up. I will post pictures when parts start arriving.

Got the dash pulled today. Waiting on the new wiring harnesses, and gauges. Big parts order tomorrow. I will be very busy next week. Lots of stuff to clean up before I re-install the dash.

Fun working under there, eh?
I like the sound of the Poncho idling....

Decided on the wheels. Bonspeed GTb 18 x 9 front. 18 x 11 rear.

Mark at SC&C just put a whipping on me... :D

[67speedfreak]

Wow , that dash is in good shape !

I like the Speedhut gauges was thinking of using them myself.

[69*Goat]

Been here, done this before. Hopefully I won't have to do it again.








This is my Poor Man's rendition. XBOX Forza is good for something...

Got the front bumper pulled tonight. You know something that just really ticks me off... it is a body guy that won't admit he can't do something, and covers up crappy work, hoping it will never be discovered.

[Nicks67GTO]

Wow man youre going wild on this thing! Thats an impressive parts list. There seems to be a lot of Pontiacs getting the PT treatment on here lately. Its pretty cool.

At this point, you might as well do a frame off! LOL

If you do a frame off, you can box the spring and I would also run the Global West extended front travel coilover kit. You can also reinforce the frame in the rear and run a proper coil over kit back there.

I know right. I did a frame off 7 years ago when I got it. Had I been interested in the pro-touring thing back then, I would have done things differently. I will at some point in this cars life, put a complete new chassis under it made for track time.

if you have a th400 in the car now and it is set up allready I would consider a gear vendors o.d. unit I had one in my pick up and it was awesome o.d. every gear and launch control so it automaticly goes into overdrive 1st for great launches. I love this body style looks like you have a great start here can't wait to see the progress.

Had a very nice conversation last night with Ben "Pumkn8r" Meissner. I will be the proud owner of one of his renditions in a month or so. He is going to see if there can be some graphics "Tastefully" added.

Hydra-Boost System inbound...

[69*Goat]

Spent 3.5 hours tonight removing the front lighting harness, and the engine harness. I managed to get the front lighting harness replaced. Tomorrow I will be removing the brake booster, M/C assembly, and cleaning up the firewall. I won't be doing the flat firewall conversion, so I will just get it cleaned up, and paint it satin black. Two weeks before the new Hydroboost system arrives. I may be asking for some guidance on the installation.

[69*Goat]

Two original Fenders showed up today. One has a dent, and the other has two small dents(quarter size), and a small patch of rust on the outer skin. Both are better than what was on the car, and the body guy knows what he has to start with.

[69*Goat]

A lot of stuff going on today. I removed all items that were hanging off of the fire wall. I am replacing my ext. regulated Alt with an int. regulated Alt, so was able to do away with the ext. regulator. I am putting in Hydro-boost, so the Vac Booster is gone. I washed the firewall, and gave it a coat of semi gloss paint.

Nice work!
