Really Ratty Rusty Ruby Ruined & Rotting RIP

[INDY510]

What are you doing for exhaust Indy?

 

I don't even know what motor will fit, ,, ,, , there will be an exaust tunnel on the floor ..... KA and SR's will never fit under the hood ...... .. :hmm: ... maybe a L16 moved back and up

 

.... .. .. or a Miata motor ,,, ,, or Rotary .... ... or a Hayabusa in the passenger seat ..... .. .. :angel:

[INDY510]

Is your tank going to fit or are you going to modify that too??

 

I can't fit the stock tank with my roll cage idea ... ......... .. so .. hack hack ..... :rofl:

 

[INDY510]

Be sure to box in the triangle areas below the main hoop for best support. Looking great!

 

Is this what you're talking about??? .... but on the bars going to the rear towers?

The U-joints and control arms hit the body on a slammed stock 510 .... .. so to keep it low I'm raising the rear floor another 1/2":

So I'm going to go out on a limb here and say no rear seat passengers?

[SR20DETdatsun510]

Awe man, I was salivating when I saw you posted and hoped it was some new progress.... Thanks Indy!!

Pretty soon I will be getting an auto stiffy.... Can't wait.... (No Homo) Lol

[bananahamuck]

Why only a 1/2" and not more, wouldn`t the axles be at a better angle the higher you went...??

[Farmer Joe]

while you got some update up in here, i have to tell you we need to learn you some better welding skills...

 

slow down and try to make a stack of coins... i figure you dont wanna have to weld it up again after you put all the sheetmetal in..

 

but other than that the frameworks for the floor kick ass.. will the back doors still be functional? at least just open and close? i figure like the rest there wont be a lot of rear space... :lol:

[VintageRice]

X2 what Farmer Joe said. A few 1 inch good thick "stack of coins" welds every few inches would be much stronger than full length tiny welds like you got. Move the tip of the welder more side to side and less the length of the seam(if ya know what I mean) Turn the heat up as high as you can go without melting holes. Wire speed up to match. no offense, just hate to see that thing cracking apart on speed bumps!! EEK.

[VintageRice]

BTW I love the square tube fabbing skillz. Can't WAIT to see this done!

[Farmer Joe]

dang... i cant believe i never put that together..

 

we partied a little too much when they came and got those 2 510s lol

[FiveTenzo]

in the ending how do you think the handling would be?

[Stupid_fast]

Its been a week, I'm starting to worry. :(

 

Or maybe I'm just addicted to pictures of extremely low 510's.

[INDY510]

[Just Joel]

Ha, I like that ;)

[Farmer Joe]
