Beautiful build. Stance, color combo everything. The interior really sets it off. Very well done, sir.

I wonder if something such as tissue paper coated with thinned white glue would work as a substitute for the heat shrink, might be more work than it's worth. Or a few wraps of bmf or something similar?

My wife used this for a phone charger repair, found it on reddit. Pen spring and heat shrink. Looks convincing

I ran into the same issue with the hoses, I ended up having to file the angles on the ends to better match the engine side. This is looking beautiful.

I like the idea, keep it simple, parts "readily" available. People around me used them for 4 cylinder dirt track cars, they seemed to figure out how to get them competitive. I remember Skip Barbers driving school had a fleet of them for training.

Those are great little blazers, 4.3 just run and run. Is that neon the 420a or 4g63 engine?

Scary, funny video. We share the road with these people. The brake repair one's always get me. "Just rolled in" channel on YouTube is another one.

Yup, or keep it to the floor till second gear.

Workplace goings-on cracked me up today.

Thank you, I will definitely not forget those.

Good catch, I wasn't aware of that.

Maybe the 68 dart seats could work, or another "a" body mopar. Dart, duster, valiant ect.

The latest model corvette is mid- engine.

This kit has a 426 wedge, and slant six

Cool stuff, must have been kicked off around the "gas crunch" time being the 70's. A bit before my time. Funny how people forget things and think its a new idea. Some of the first "cars" were electric. I'm surprised propane isn't used more, but like everything it has it's pros and cons. The hydrogen thing is interesting. To me, alternative fuel means alcohol, or if you wanna get serious, nitromethane. Somebody once said gas is for cleaning parts,alcohol for drinking, and nitro for racing.

Happy new year everyone.

Not really an "irk", just an observation, those that complain of their situation yet refuse to change the behavior that put them in that spot in the first place. And doing so while interrupting my conversation and morning coffee.

Welcome tothe forum

And yet there are fools that would call that a deal.

Finished the foil with the exception of the wheel openings. Tried foiling the emblem on the back,worked 'till it didn't. I'll hit that with molotow I think. Couldn't resist throwing it together to get a look at it, so far not too bad, I like the look.

Killer savings.

I was curious and looked that up. It's a slow drying reducer, according to the one site I looked at. I'm not a painter or chemist, perhaps there's a difference between a reducer and an actual "thinner"? Could explain the cloudiness. I'd like to know myself, I've got 3/4 gallon of reducer in the garage.

Patience is an understatement, for sure. I think working with metal all day helps with this part, I kinda know how it "behaves", but this is so thin you have to be a step ahead of it. Thanks
