Buzzbomb Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Man...What a great job you guys are doing on Hainz's car :eek: He'll be back on the road in no time with that thing. Pretty cool that you all are taking the time to get his car back on the road. Even though I've only been on this board for a short time, I've already received a great deal of help from Hainz. So I'm rooting for this to all work out :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 For some reason the paint looked orange when applied but as it dried it changed to red..... Weird I thought because after mixing the paint with hardener and stuff it looked like blood. But I'm no paint dude so maybe it's common. And the heater that kept us warm all night :D Thanks Hainz Quote Link to comment

slodat Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Sweet cup holder Nillon. I think Hainz should be honest about the whole "accident" thing... Perhaps he was growing green with "I wish I had a dime with the Icehouse & Frank compound treatment" and what really happened is he rented his quote 'beater dime' un-quote out to some youngster ricers for a few fast & furious dolla holla bills ya'll so that he could muster up a datto in need of saving... It's just a theory... a half-brained... fuck, who we kidding? a quarter brained theory at best :D Nonetheless, this build is a poetic... a fitting.... it is a damn fine example of what the Wolfman, Frank, Nillon and associates can do when given a canvas and reason. Nice work boys! This build has opened my eyes to what can be done with my dime, which I had previously thought was 'too much work' to be a nice dime. I only hope that Perry doesn't put it up on Craigslist for $500 after all your hard work because he can't figure out how to get the damn L16 running :D oh.. one last thing... how do I verify my L motor is at TDC? :D Quote Link to comment

Wharf Rat Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 That is a heart warming thread :) Way to go Wicked good work too, you could have pulled and tweaked it back and called it good. But no you gave that car, or more like that cars owner, the Rolls Royce treatment. SWEET Quote Link to comment

Pedro Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 With all new steering components, the thing will drive like new. Did you guys make the adjustable control arms or purchase them? Also those tie rod rods that have the flat middle section, where did you guys get those? Keep up the great work, I bet I'm not the only one that would attempt some body work after reading all your guys threads. Quote Link to comment

We are hoping it will drive nice :D The control arms are built by Troy Ermish The Tie rod sleves are from Shucks. Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 The new floor boards and some of the front suspension is complete. There are still quite a few things to do before it is done. I will get some new pics next time I'm over there :D Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 sweeeeeeeeet. I seen hainz post something about his beater in another thread and it got me to wonder what was going on. cant wait to see the new pics! Quote Link to comment
spoolinitup33 Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Some more pics.... Slowly it goes back together. Is that a proportioning valve or something on that brake line that goes to the rear? And is it necessary? Someone told me it wasn't so I took my off when I was redoing my brakes.

Bleach Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Its hard to believe that is Hainz's car with all that paint! The new suspension parts are normal for Hainz. All new parts on a rusty 4 door beater. :) Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 We are really close, I've just been to lazy to post the pics. :D maybe tomorrow I can post some up. Quote Link to comment
