The race car ...?... maybeee?

[Bento]

Hi all,

So i have been into the good old E chassis for some time now and have built my fair share of fun cars and regretfully sold all of them........ so this is going to be the "be all to end all" as such (heard this before)

so here it is,

old pic as i haven't taken any yet

So there is a bit of story behind the old girl, for a long time a good friend of mine Paul owned it and him and i used to go to town on it every sunday , reducing as much weight as possible, tubing everything we could, deleting this and that and just generally cutting the shit out of and replacing it with new bits.

times have changed and people have moved on (or to japan) and the old girl has now ended up in my hands with the promise it will see the track again.

As it sits its got some slapped up suspension to get it rolling and some stockos to match, the engine is gone and the interior is gutted, all ready to get a massive going over, every bolt every bush, every panel, every square inch.

Plans for now:

Finish what i started and tube the front end
Create some new bracing and cage
seem weld a bits here and there
clean up the body a wee bit

Am a long way from home but should be fun.

Thanks for looking

Okay so here are some pics of what has been happening in the last few weeks.

The old Dry ice and sound deadening trik, near in 7kgs i think? fucking heavy anyway

33343

Okay so i was cleaning away and i came across this.... honestly who the fuck allows someone to have a welder in their hands if they are producing garbage like this?

33344

upon further inspection, yes .... yes it is bird shit

33345

unpicked / cut

So some plans for tomorrow will be to seam weld a shit load of the inside and begin measurements for the cage and tubing

None of the pics work for me :(

Do they not work for you as in actually don't work (broken) or because of the hideous welding on the lower support or because of what i have done ? hahaha
