man that looks great. so i made a picture using paint cause i dont have photoshop right now



so where the red is thats gonna be plexi, then whats gonna go where the yellow box is? just sheet metal or you gonna make a nice little design?

 

Very nice work as always.

 

hey zach, i'm planning to put a design in the sheetmetal there. something that will look like it was done with a bead roller, but since i don't have one.... will be done the hard way.

 

I'll DEFINITELY be checking this thread out when I'm not so tired...

where'd it go....



where did what go?

 

Still cant wait to see this BEAST finished will be the sickest 86 Toyota EVER!! Bar none your work is amazing keep us posted

 

only took a little less than 2 hours. abra cadabra!

 

Toyotas should have just come like that. looks great...

 

thanks zach. i actually did the whole thing while we were texting today

 

your a show off, as a matter of a fact i just texted you lol...

 

Lookin sick Bernie! I'm going to fly you to GA when you get done so you chop up my truck lol

 

so today i got the cowl cut back in an attempt to get the motor lower, as well as making room for the radiator. i ended up cutting right about 2" into the cowl, and i brought the motor way down.

here's how much it stuck up before. (i don't have a side shot)



here's is where i cut it (still has to be welded, but the motors too damn heavy to move by myself)



and where it will be mounted.







i had to remove the a/c compressor. it pushed the motor 1" out of center because it hit the steering box. no biggie since there isn't any a/c ducting in the cab, and i'll just need to get a slightly shorter belt. tomorrow i'll fab up the mounts and get her set. then fab up a transmember and air it up for the first time in 9 months..... 1 month and a day till west coast nationals!!!!!!

 

not as productive of a day as i would have liked... but i got one side made.

 

Looks sick Bernie

 

Lookin good! What are you using to bend those plates? Something around the house or do you have access to a shop somewhere?

 

i have a metal brake!



i tried like hell but it wouldn't bend them..

i took my 18" chisel and my 10lb sledge (my friend is borrowing my 6lb) and placed them in a piece of angle iron. a couple quick smacks and they bent..

 

That's the nicest custom motor mount I have ever seen! Excellent work Bernie! That really ups the bar in my book.
