Default It's been awhile here are some new pics

Here are some pics of my car it's been awhile since I posted anything. No the car is not painted yet still needing a little more body work. But hopefully it will be painted by the end of year. Not sure what color yet but I figure it out by then.

All the body work and interior work was done by me. And the suspension was done by my buddy and I. Took 6 months to design and build it's going to be redone in a couple of weeks probably. So I'll post up some new pics I might redo the front suspension as well we and talked about a really crazy ass setup for it so who knows.

It's take awhile to get to here do to set backs but hopefully it will be done. Want to start on the new project which is pictured in my Avatar.

Here's the rear suspension





Here it's all laidout



Here's the new front bumper after hitting some steel in the road R.I.P Ixion kit 02.gif



Here's my interior with a custom guage pod built in the passenger airbag.

Wow, the side skirt looks like it's only an inch or two above the ground. Good luck with choosing the color.

Hard to tell but it looks like hydrolics. What color are you going to paint it and what are all of those gauges for?

Yeah that is an air-ride setup when the bags in the center fill with air. They push the bars coming off the custom A-arms downward. Which are connected to the trailing arms. The bars push the trailing arms down with raise the car up. The ride is great in the car nice and smooth. The front is your normal bag strut setup.

I drive the car off and on depends on my mood need to get a new battery for it right now. I'll get some better pics of it and post them up just havent had a lot of time b/c I'm fiberglassing a dash right now the one that is sitting on top of the roof of the car.

I was thinking about it but my car club is having a BBQ in memory of our friend who died about year ago. Every car club around here will be at the BBQ so I need to go to that to show my respect to family and my friend.

The guages are the top two are air-ride guages one for the front and one for the rear.

The bottom far right one is Volt, the center is engine temp and the last one is oil temp.
