Harry P. Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 You're doing a terrific job on this! A pretty ugly car if you ask me, but your work so far looks very good.
Brizio Posted July 26, 2013 Author Posted July 26, 2013 Thank you all! Working on the seats... The cushion part will be attached after painted. I did not built all together because I think it will be easy to paint the parts separately.
Brizio Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Engine... I need to start work on it, so I can see if it fit in the motor bay...
Danno Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Thank you Jeremy! Here some small progress on the Caddy... Rebuilt the rear suspension and add the plumbing... Do you have the brake lines routed under the spring mount u-bolts? That's not good!
Brizio Posted July 28, 2013 Author Posted July 28, 2013 Do you have the brake lines routed under the spring mount u-bolts? That's not good! Tonight when I will be home I will check it out and fix it! Thanks!
Brizio Posted July 31, 2013 Author Posted July 31, 2013 Finally I had some time to do something for the car, is not too much but at least is a step forward in the right direction.
Brizio Posted July 31, 2013 Author Posted July 31, 2013 After searching for 4 wheels for the car, I put them on the side of the table, and start to work on the dashboard. I did not notice that one fell on the floor... Guess who find it before me... My dog...
Brizio Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 Finally some paint... I like when I can start to paint, things take shape, and give the idea that something is moving forward. Axles... Two wheels and tires done, I still need to finish two tires. Needs resize them and re-widht. I mean make them smaller in diameter and narrow. I don't remember where those tires came from, I mean for sure not from another planet , but the tread looks pretty cool for this car, and they are rubber. Here the rear tires on the axle.
Brizio Posted August 3, 2013 Author Posted August 3, 2013 Thank you Dr.Cranky! Slowly progress, but in the right direction.
Greg Wann Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 This is a really cool subject to build. Good work so far.
