Ira Posted April 7, 2013 Author Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) ENGINE MOUNTS! The Engine Mounts were made with Plastic Tubing. I used a Miter Box to cut one end of the tubing on an angle. Here they are in place... More Coming... Edited April 9, 2013 by Ira

Ira Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 (edited) MORE LEGROOM!!! I made an Access Panel from Sheet Plastic. This will also serve as the New Floorboard... I had to cut about 1/4" from the bottom of the Interior to clear the New Access Panel. I also removed the lower front section, too add more legroom... More Coming... Edited April 9, 2013 by Ira

Trans Am Erik Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 Looks good so far. I thought you were going to use both bodies to make a Star Wars cloud speeder.
Ira Posted April 9, 2013 Author Posted April 9, 2013 Not sure where this is going yet, but the suspense is killing me. Thanks Mike!You are a machine! Strap in for yet another one of Ira's Wild Rides... Should be Fun!!!

Ira Posted April 10, 2013 Author Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) X-ITE GOT BACK! I need a Seat Back to make X-ite Nice & Comfy. A section cut from a 59 Chevy seat will be perfect. Strip plastic was used to make the Seat Back the right thickness. Then I sanded it down to get the right angle when mounted on the inside of the rear door. More Coming... Edited April 10, 2013 by Ira

Ira Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 You do some beautiful bodywork Ira! Thanks Jason!
Eshaver Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) I like you're version better . This one looks more "Balanced ". I'm surprised Ed Roth himself never envisioned a second version of his creation. I met him once when he was part of a World of Wheels show in Dallas once . He really was a wealth of useful information that day. He would stop and answer my questions as he was signing autographs for others . Edited April 12, 2013 by Eshaver
Custom Hearse Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 It's looking awesome Ira! Looking forward to seeing what you do next!!!
Ira Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 That's one wild idea can't wait to see this one turn out man!!! Thanks Levi!

Ira Posted April 13, 2013 Author Posted April 13, 2013 Looks good so far. I thought you were going to use both bodies to make a Star Wars cloud speeder. Thanks Eric! That's a good idea....
