The ROLLING chassis is finally finished! (besides steering and brake lines etc...). Monday, my mom bought a pint of Viper Red paint (that's going to be the body color). The pint alone was almost $80, where a quart of the graphite was $80... I painted the two calipers monday afternoon. Then on Tuesday, I assembled the front bearings/rotors/calipers. Wednesday night, I put the front brake hoses and brackets on, the proportioning valve, idler arm and wheels on. I'm waiting on tie-rod adjuster sleeves to be shipped so I can finish the steering.
I like the way it looks. Especially looking throught the front wheels at the drilled rotors and red calipers. I'm happy with the outcome of the whole chassis.
