JustinOlson Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Honestly I dont like the rear fender flares on there since your tubed. The wheels and tires don't occupy the space so its just looks a bit off. Great looking car. I can't wait to see it finished! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirdmanZ Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I love it! Seeing this car is what made me choose to go RB in the first place. Don't get discouraged man, you'll find a way to get it done. Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you thinking on finding another shop, or finish her up yourself? Either way, I'd be proud to have that in my stable... Keep us posted on your decision .... and good luck!!

ZXRockie Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Keep it up brother, you'll be alright. I guess we all hit the bottom that make you wish that one never started the project, but then you find the answer and keep building. I'm in the same situation, for the last year I've been; low in funds, military deployments and finding a descent place to work the body and paint it for me, I'm close this time, very close ...

stony Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Im starting to calm down alittle. It was just the overwhelming rush of i have to get it done soon. one of my 4 link bars are threaded incorrectly and when they were assembled before i picked the car up he didnt clean out the shavings so now all the threads are dicked up. nothing a tap cant fix.

ww Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I know the feeling... My 280ZXT project has been at the body shop since January 12, 2005... Almost 30 months now... and my RB25DET project started about 3 months ago... and my LS7 project hasn't started yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob_H Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Do you have a picture showing the powerglide mount and how it works with the starter? I'm trying to figure out if I can use a chevy bellhousing,(for a manual tranny), to adapt my RB to my G-Force GF-5R transmission. It appears as if the roughly "3 o'clock" position would interfere with the lower ear on the block? Any insight into that? -Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 stony, im just curious. what was the cause of it taking 4 years, really? i mean... wtf? looks like a huge project, but 4 years on just the chassis? i think someone took the measure twice and and cut once thing a bit overboard or something.

stony Posted July 11, 2007 Author Share Posted July 11, 2007 Any project will take as long as you want if you dont ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ touch it. he would do just enough to keep me off his back. i finally just had enough. I'm paying now fro a guy to come up from teh lower 48 to finish it to the point i can take over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
