"A" Basket Case

[Tyster36]

Wondered what happened to this one? Glad to see you back on it. [cl
Nice lookin' leftovers too.

Looking really good Tyster.....awesome to see your dudes helping you out. RCI tank I see...are you happy with it so far? I was just about to layout some cash for one....

I've used one in the last project i had. Works great.

Worked on the rain gutters a lil last night. Welding them on and smoothing them out will take a while.

 

[Tyster36]

Drip rails are on. Guess they look ok.

The car is turning out great! [dr

 

[Tyster36]

Thanks Flipper. It's been a long road and i still don't see a stop sign in sight. Not sure i ever will. LOL

 

[BUSTEDKNUCKLE]

Looks great!.....love how its turning out.

 

[Tyster36]

Got out in the shop a lil before i got the dam FLU that turned into a mojor cold! Anyways, i got the drip rails how i want them. Also made a panel for over the windshield/roof area. I'm wanting to do a 32 style insert that bolts in. Going to take some 18-20 ga and make a 1" angle channel to run around the entire roof opening and then make a frame work out of aluminum for the roof panel.

 

[Tyster36]

Oh ya, painted the wheels too. Now to get them tires back on them. Car is going to be Black on Black on Black so to speak.

Been trying to get my a$$ in gear on this thing. Got out in the shop today and finally got some primer on it. I sealed it with DP90 first, then shot 3 coats of CP440 2K primer on it. Probably block it with 220 one more time and apply 3 more coats of CP440 and block with 400-600 paper. It looks good enough now probably to sand with 400 and paint, buut once more won't hurt it.

Looking good! Now that you've got some momentum going I hope you can keep it up!

I've been busy on this ol pile. Got the deck lid fitting and the car in final prime i think. The gas tank top could use one more block and prime. Got my gauges mounted and cut the bottom of the tank and mounted the wire harness inside. Made a removable top and got my color picked out. Burgandy with ivory firewall.

 

[CORPO]

This is turning out great! I like the color choice too

 

[Tyster36]

Got my frame painted up. Also added a sort of K member style to my crossmember.
