BG progress thread

[garyk1970]

well ,BG is a few weekends away,and i have a long list of repairs/upgrades I'm doing to my car before i go.....heres what i have going on.
post up your projects and pics on whats going on in your garage....curious to see if everyone is scrambling like me,or are you guys ready?

first is my dash removal to repair the common split across the top of the pad....while i had the dash out,i integrated the alarm and soldered all the connections and hidden it in the harness.

second big job was a NOS powermaster system installed (The correct reservoir was installed)...thanks goes out to Patrick (zues87gn) for the expert installation....:biggrin:

Oooooo..Ain't it purdy!
Thanks Gary. I got my payment in getting to test drive it!:biggrin:
That had to have been the easiest bleed out and setup I have ever done. Maybe it was luck, or maybe the tequila.

Glad to know they are still working well.
I'm going to make it to BG one day...d@mnit!
Another year I have to miss.
One day.....

I had planned to attend this year but the recent crappy weather here in KY has kept me inside. The car still needs some sunroof work done and meticulous installation of the emblems. I'm still missing one that I need.
To top it off, the supervisor says that I may need to work that week as well. So, it's all up in the air.

Your car looks good btw...

In the past I've scrambled weeks before to get the car done. This year the car has been ready since January.

I've been counting the days 'til BG because there's nothing to do on the car.

tires look too big?? no scrubbing though.........not as unsuspecting of a look as I'm shooting for,but the performance is well worth it.

Dang Gary, that stance looks sinister!
Those drag radials fit in there perfectly.
Fills the wheel wel just like it was meant to be there.
