thanks... 95tc.


here is a close-up of the weld on that bellcrank...


what must a weld look like for it not to brake at all. I spotted this thing together, with 3 spots a side, and I had to dislocate a collarbone to get the damn thing apart again, grinding and all...and that's with just a couple of teensy little spots

Gees, I never realized how ugly a battery actually is. Trying to get a nice spot for it, but no matter where, it's ether right smack in a spot where it spoils the looks, or it's where there's too much heat for it... found a spot underneath the dash though....

You are a ------- mad-man! I love it! To see someone actually doing this is awesome! I always wanted to make a mini Champ Car or something along those lines. I have the creativity to make one and figure out how to make things work, just dont have the skills for welding and fab work on that level.

Just make a cover for the battery if you can still see it where you put it. Yeah nobody likes to see a battery.
