Take some fucking pictures. Am just as bad about using my digicam but I at least take some with my Iphone and post them. Build threads with updates without pics are LAME.

Srsly, this makes my build thread look like I was hand-fabbing an ATOM.

UrbanSoot 07-17-2009 12:48 PM

going to shop tomorrow to snap some pics. apparently suspension bushings are in, brakes are mostly in, and cage is half-way bolted/welded up :)

A build thread with out pics is actually a shopping/wish list isn't it?

Pics or it didn't happen.

arranged for my tuner to come to the shop for initial cranking of motor (so he can supervise it and make me a base map before we crank it for the first time)

18psi 07-22-2009 01:52 AM

UrbanSoot 07-22-2009 12:56 PM

Good call on that fiberglass top!

Sucks for your friend though, what the hell did they use to pack his top, bricks?

cardboard box that top came in is actually WAY heavier then top itself. they just bubble wrapped that bitch but i must be honest - they could have packet it better.
