Swedishcadillac Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I don't usually preach, but the fact that Joel and I don't use alcohol, tobacco and other recreational poisons probably frees up a lot of monies & focus for those Datto #rareparts. Flame away now RatsunHeads... 3 Quote Link to comment

jrock4224 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 And what do you do when you need to fill said hole but don't have fancy sheet metal tools (or skills)? Improvise! :) more like unibody reinforcement lol Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Haha... That actually is part of it. That section is structural and I wanted to put it back. That said, it's only 12 gauge and adds less than 2 lbs over what was removed. Quote Link to comment

Just Joel Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 If it weren't for coffee, I wouldn't get shit done. I'm all about that but I'm into the fancy hard (expensive) shit... Otherwise I'd be wrenching on the Hako :D Clean living otherwise, keeps life cheap enough to enjoy the finer things :) 2 Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I blame the coffee for the blurry (shaky) exhaust photo :) 1 Quote Link to comment

mrbigtanker Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Sorry Tanker, that's up there with repop badges and wheels for me. Real deal or nothing ;) things like this are special and knock offs lack soul and history. I know that some aren't willing to truly hunt and preserve rare parts. It's the typical path of any popular classic. But don't get me wrong, I don't fault you... plenty of money to be made but I'll continue to find and represent only originals. With all the nos parts your rockin, I know your a supporter ;) Baby doll i am 10000000000% behind you [and not like that lol] I do have a OG set but it was hacked to fit a newer wagon. So since mine is a 71 and its no were near as nice as yours i am going to let him try and make a few sets and NO not for everyone and i am going to polish and mount the set I got. Its not the way it was meant but i am since it was cut already. And for the record in my opinion you have one of the sickest wagons out there period hands down, because like you i can appreciate some one who has your talent and skills let alone vision to do it right. Alright now mount that sum bitch and let me see it already.lol :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: 3 Quote Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Can I ask what muffler that is? I am looking for something slim with a twin tip just like that. :thumbup: he is also running a another can farther up .. interested to see what this sounds like Quote Link to comment

Just Joel Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 One year, but mostly to appease fitment concerns and while I refinished the mkIII's. But sure, you got me... Won't let it happen again, scouts honor 1 Quote Link to comment
