Bob3 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Bummer. I was really hoping to see you do some donuts with those little ass tires. I still can. That would be a pretty cool video! 1 Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Great News! The tracking number for my fuel cell says "out for early delivery" :thumbup: I will have it by the end of the day today. I will get that installed and plumbed and fire the car. I will cut the fenders enough to clear my new wheels & tires then try and get an alignment done. Then the only thing I'm waiting for is flares. That's a sore subject - let's focus on the positive! I will have a productive weekend and post some more pics! 1 Quote Link to comment

Kirden Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Grats Bob. Early delivery! Winning! It would be awesome if they took a look at your build thread and said "wow, this guy has been through a lot, lets get his project back on schedule." Quote Link to comment

Z chopper Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 bob just a thought you should try and make it to the Datsun Matsuri one of these years and go hill climbing in either MX520 or Misinformation 1 Quote Link to comment
metalmonkey47 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Looking great Bob! Nice to see that it's really pulling together. Can't wait to see the end result :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 It's almost there, what's the weight distribution looking like? I see that nothing is hanging down under the wagon, it's very flat under there, that type of thing must be second nature to you, I have not gotten the hang of that yet, going to have to remove the cab again on my project. What's left, piping the fuel, wiring, and the flairs? Quote Link to comment

What's left, piping the fuel, wiring, and the flairs? That's about it. The hard fuel lines and the wiring is all run to the rear of the car. I need to finish up a few things and fire it tomorrow. I will then put on the new wheels and tires and do some cutting just for clearance. I will do the final cutting once the flares arrive. I have a little dash work to do. I'm thinking I may need to remove the dash bar (the roll cage bar that runs under the dash) and redo it to be lower on the passenger side, it just isn't quite the way I want it. I need to finish up the exhaust now that the fuel cell is mounted, and, and, and . . . Tomorrow is day 60! (although I was traveling for TEN days since the start) I am truly amazed at what I've gotten done in such a short amount of time! :huh: Quote Link to comment

It's amazing what can be done when one has a plan before starting the project. I really do want to buy that 411 instrument cluster face from you after all this rushing around trying to get this project done comes to an end, and then the only rushing around will be in circles at the track. :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment
