This looks awesome. Very clean looking.

 

X2 for the oval

 

tonight i fabbed the brackets and installed the tarnish tank from my 86 yota.







plenty of clearance..

 

love the work your doing its for sure going to be one nice lux when your done

 

sick find
what way are you going to build it
for show or
all go

 

i'm really torn as to which way to go....

i really wanted just a ratty daily driver.. nothing special, flat black, 14's, etc.

but i'd like to run some big brakes since i believe that go power should be matched by stopping power. problem is the big discs just don't work with little wheels.

and the more i build it the less i want it to be overlooked due to a simple flat black paintjob. i'm kinda leaning toward some metallic black, but i'd have to pay someone to do all the bodywork.

I'm planning on running the stock rear for now. i'm leaving it an open rear so i don't break anything. if something does break, i'll probably look into a narrowed ford 8.8.

 

i would run some other steelies then. find some 15s or 16s. supra rotors and 4runner calipers should fit under a 15 fine. supras and 4runners had them. if you grind down the caliper it could even fit under a 14. thats what i plan to do. or atleast check measurements on. simply...set the caliper onto the rotor, and drop it into a loose wheel. see how far off from center i am, and add 1/8". then take that amount off with a grinder. i wanted to smooth all the casting flash from them anyways and paint them black.

 

i'm planning on running to the junkyard and checkin some cars out. really all i need is a rotor from a car that had 14's factory, and has the 114.3 pattern.

 

AWESOME!!

i want that motor so bad!

 

Nice, Bernie!

 

its going to be a rocket!!!

 

yeah. i second that. mine with a decent 20R hauls balls. that things gonna fly. have fun with traction. or wheelies.

 

i've started on the front k member.







the bushings for the lowers will go inside like this





and my nieghbor gave me these. 17x8 cobra mustang wheels.

 

amazing... im even more jealous

 

Now that you have room in your garage, you're rollin' along!

 

thanks guys.


i got all the holes drilled and finish welded the k member. got it squared up and tacked into place, and once i pick up some mk3 supra knuckles i'll finish weld it. tomorrow i will fab the motor mounts, then probably pull the cab and fab the transmember.

i got a order in from suicidedoors, but they forgot a few weld on bushings so i can't start my links until the send me the pieces

here's the pics:
