Building another T toy

rarperformance · Feb 9, 2013

I should have my wheels in 2wks. The wheel builder is a little behind. I can't wait. I would like to have the car up and running by June for the Hot Rod Power Tour.
Roll cage tubing will be here tuesday. So we'll be starting on that soon.

Cool, your building a modern day Pro Street car.
Have you thought about using air ride instead of coil over shocks?

rarperformance · Feb 10, 2013

We thought about AirRide. But decided to go QA1. Goal is to get it done by June for the Hot Rod Power Tour.

I really like this thread. Any new progress???

We should have some more pics in a few days. I'm still waiting on the wheels. The company said it takes 4-6 wks to build them. It will be week #6 this Friday on the 22nd, and then the time to have them shipped. The roll cage should be getting installed soon. My partner had to catch up on some work on his Rat Rods he's building.

Cant wait to see on your car!

Thanks, Guys. For the compliments. I should have the wheels delivered to me at my door on 3/14. Then that weekend have some pics of the wheels under the car for mock up.

Wheels came in today. We will get the tires mounted and placed for axle messurement this weekend.

Mounted.

We could'nt get the tire up in the wheel well because the rear end was up. So I did some paper cutting photoshop.

We got the wheels in place to get measured for the rearend housing to get cut to size. This is how the car will actually sit (Maybe a couple inches lower).

Here were finishing narrowing the rearend.

We finished the rearend. Now waiting on the axles and center section.

Started on the rollcage.

Special thanks to my partner John at Ozan Chassis and Speed.

I was wondering the same thing.

We are still working on it. We've been working on another project, getting it ready for a show. I'll post some updated pics soon.
