That looks really good. I like the fact that you used the stock radiator. Do you plan on using the stock fans? Does the bottom of the radiator move around any with it only being secured by the top section?

Nice street car

I'd love to do that to mine

im sure he is going to keep the stock fans!

I am going to try to reuse them...just depends on clearance with the elec water pump and the front mount distributor setup. of course when i sold my wire harness, I forgot to cut the plug off...so now I need to hunt one down

bottom of the rad does not move at all - theres a couple notches in the factory rad that we utilized when building the supports - they rest right inside them comfortably, so there should be no moving around at all.

as always many thanks for the comments folks - very appreciated.

off too mock up the cowl plates tonight....gotta get that finished up this week!

any more support for the frotn headlighs besides just the top bracket?

wlsmoku

the bottom factory bracket will be fuctional - I bent it up and screwed it into the factory metal - looks like it belongs there.

Since you cut out the fresh air inlet at the cowl, can you tell me where the air goes? Is the firewall double walled or something? It's a mystery to me. I need to clean out all the leaves and crap but I don't know where they end up.

Enlighten us please.

wlsmoku

there is no air to get in there since the hood goes all the way back to the windshield.




btw - picked up a Percy rear pretinted glass, and will be going to get the front when it's avail. MAN this thing is LIGHT!!!

Jerry, let me know how the install goes on that Percy's window. Ive been looking into getting the clear version and having it tinted but I have heard you really should have a window installer put the new window in?

wlsmoku

they say that cause it's supposed to be easier (they have the correct primer, and sealer)

I may have a line on a guy to cut me a deal to install it, so I may just have it done. the window itself is 2nd to none....damn nice quality!

I need to come see it when you get it in. If its dark enough, I can go that route.

Have you ever put your fronts (wheels) on a set of scales? I have those same ones. I think i wont to go to Magums are somthing super lite but i like the way the telstars look. By the way bad *** build

wlsmoku

they are pretty much the heaviest skinny...EVER hahaha

thanks for the props - very appreciated


build update:
dzus fastner rails on, and all the holes drilled in hood. more firewall work, and then priming engine bay. lil slow lately - totally my fault.


probs with hood fitment.....after hrs of grinding the hood to get it to fit front to back and sit flush like it should, the sides of the hood have redonkulous gaps!


lost a bit of motivation after nobody offering good tech on how to properly add fiberglass to the edge of the hood and make it strong, so I'm setting it aside and going back to the metal work.


besides...I miss blowing black snot from the welding/grinding


sorry - no pics til its in primer

wlsmoku

it's only 30% tint...not real dark. I do however like that it shouldn't scratch since the tint is in the lexan itself.

I'll def letcha know when it's in man - your always welcome to a few of my adult sodas
