Gt-12

[gwaii]

well fawk dude...i cant describe ya if i had to...

'slightly odd' would be a good place to start

thant's pretty gonna look good when its done. the thing about only priming it and not using any filler might be a little stretch but your gwaii so who knows

it all comes down to how much time i want to spend with a hammer and dolly.by then i may be getting impatient to see it primed and use filler to hurry the process...or maybe not.only time will tell

 

[gwaii]

i am sure it will have the proper filler properly applied where necessary.


if it does not, then it will not appear factory....it left the factory with small amounts of filler.

this is true to an extent....remember,it's british.they just left most of it not fitting very well.

I gotta be honest, I skipped a few pages here and there trying to get caught up on where this beast is at currently.

All I can say is WOW that is one hell of a ride you're putting together! I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the finished product.

P.S. you gotta hook us up with a video (with sound) so we can hear this bad boy running!

Oh yea, I had to quote this as it describes me to a tee!

i find it's easiest just to scroll through the pages looking for pictures.most of the actual progress has pics with it.

there's a short one about....geez,i don't even know how many pages back.i need to get the exhaust finished so it can be heard the way it'll be running.this month's goal is to finish the hood,but next(march) will be the exhaust,driveshaft,brakes,carb linkage,and shifter.then i should be able to get some rumbleing happenning.

edit....bottom of page 39.

you planning on testing out the airdam with just primer on the car, or are you going to wait for completion before it sees asphalt?

pretty sure it won't roll till the paint's done.i hate cleaning road crud off to prep for paint,plus the car needs to be stripped down for painting.i don't want to put it all together to drive it,then strip it down again to paint just so i can put it back together to drive it again.there may be some detail work to do on the interior when it hits the road though

cool! got colors planned?

I used to do that when I painted my first car I had no paitents i would put a coat on go drive it down the the way come back put the next coat on go take it for a drive it was the fastest way I could dry it. worked out great. actually.

so i had 8 hours to kill tonight, i'm not going to mention what i was SUPPOSED to be doing... but it doesn't really matter as i'm going to get paid for the time either way... lol

so here i am, 5.5 hours and 109 pages later, i am fully caught up on this build... my head now hurts

(i stopped at page 109 because that's where i started reading and following)
