Re: matts doing things
This is an issue, also I don't remember Matt running a filter which having things flying up off the wheels from having no fender wells is going to cause issues. Also any time running in the wet it's going cause issues, especially exhaust wise.P.Haire wrote:his is just all open and everything gets dirty.

Throttle fixes everything. Love is kissing your rear bumper into a snowbank at 40 mph and not leaving a scratch. If hookers carried active differentials in their purses and knew how to use 'em, I wouldn't be married. Left-foot braking fixes everything the throttle doesn't fix, including impotence and poor self-esteem. Banging off a rev limiter while looking out a car's side window and slamming into a steering stop will cure cancer. If the car isn't moving around under power, you are a small, testicle-free squirrel. The handbrake fixes everything left-foot braking doesn't fix, including philosophical issues with most major religions and the heartbreakingly impossible question of what you should have for dinner*.

Re: matts doing things
doing things. plated the strut towers, added 1" pipe for main braces and 5/16" for the mounting brackets, added flat sheet tabs to mount the fenders down, hung new fenders and hood. the oil, ps, rad, and intercooler will be hung on a removable "cradle" that attaches to the 1" structure.
starting to look like a car again!
