Title: Hows Your Winter Project Coming?
Post by: kirin on February 05, 2004, 09:00:04 PM

Just curious to see how many people are actually moving..
I know James is trying but bah nothing out of him.. let alone pictures of how his car is coming along..
So your Seabert update. Upholstery is well underway and should be done by the end of this month.. Should be great well till Pipes told me that I should get some real seats other then my lowbacks [_[
Front beam is almost ready to be swapped over.. and front chassis detailed..
Then I need to do the brakes.. then figure out the tranny and then build up the engine..
all in 130 days..
Not sure if I'll make it but I'm sure going to try..

Top Secret - I've got a few new things up my sleeve that I'm not about to let out just yet.

slowly, but surely. i have only had the mig set up since jan 1, and have managed about 7 hours total welding time. (measure, measure, cut, tack, tack, cool down, tack, cool etc...). still honing the skills and getting ready to tackle the canadian bucket.

starting this weekend:

new seals when the 1600 arrives, install motor next week along with a bunch of seals.  I need to recover the drivers seat, it needs a new carpet kit, realign the hood, etc...

my project will begin next week!
