Post by: red snapper on October 03, 2003, 07:06:56 AM: Hey Matt, Looks good! about time you got a little motivation going. I still think you should have kept the louvers. ;)
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: James Buchan on October 03, 2003, 09:50:36 AM: Don't weld it up to well, you going to add to much weight to that car :) - about time you started making progress!
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Geoff on October 03, 2003, 10:25:46 AM: Hey Matt, Good to see that car starting to take shape. It will be the fastest notch in our neck o the woods!
Dont chuck the louver section, I think Brad may be able to use them in his project....i'm not kidding.
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Matt on October 03, 2003, 10:54:41 AM: Thanks guys...I'm gonna use the louvered section a s a template for a new parcel tray after that its all Brads. do you think he'd want the louvers from the fenders too?
as for adding to much weight to the car...... dont forget my fat ass will be driving it....it aint gonna be a lightweight racer thats for sure!!

Matt
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: James Buchan on October 03, 2003, 11:05:20 AM: SO with your progress you should be almost ready for my car right? :rolleyes:
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Matt on October 03, 2003, 11:11:46 AM: yup.....you just want the quarters replaced right?? you wanna bring it here? or do I have to pack up my welder and all my tools and come out to cow-town?

Matt
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: James Buchan on October 03, 2003, 11:48:33 AM: If you could pack it all up and bring it out that would be awsome, I could pick it up in the Jimmy if its lots. I built another workbench at work the other night so I am reorganizing my garage right now, there will be plenty of room. Both quarters and the bumper mounts on both sides need doing - I already have the panels they are the German ones Geoff had awhile back.
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Matt on October 03, 2003, 04:54:12 PM: It would be easier if the car was here, then I could work on it in the evenings and such. I dont think I can get all that done in one day in your garage. Do you still have a towbar??

Matt
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: James Buchan on October 03, 2003, 05:05:07 PM: I had a towbar - it went MIA when I lent it to Martin over a 1 1/2 years ago. When you have room for it I'll find someone with a trailer (like brian) and bring it out. I will be ready in about 2 weeks how about you?
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Matt on October 03, 2003, 05:08:36 PM: sounds good to me, I wanna get yours done asap....no excuses for next year! I can only fit one other car (besides the notch of course) in the garage so you have to be sure it's a roller and ready for me in 2 weeks.

Matt
Title: My Project Notch
Post by: Matt on February 15, 2005, 06:16:26 PM: I'm giddy like a school girl! I finally got my garage cleared out, and Shane was kind enough to bring the notch back home today.!!! I can't wait to start work on it again, I've had it for close to 5 years, and still haven't driven it. When I bought the car it hadn't seen the road for 10+ years, now it's going on to 15!!

Thank you so much for bringing it out Pointblank!!
