Button up items to make it a rolling chassis

Keith 944 · 04-21-2023, 07:41 PM

Almost ready for cert.

Put it on my ramptruck and off to the 2022 Dutch classic to try to pass NHRA certification

It passed no problem. They liked the fact I brought it to them as a bare chassis without the body and all other components in the way.

Unfortunately no room for mufflers. And yes we should be there to test and hopefully race. Finished the painting today. Still lots to do but should be finished

When back from cert, it was time for brake lines and system, last two photos show what I do with those small pedals. Just too small for me and I actually slipped off the brake pedal in the Porsche one time, never again…

Time to weld body to frame. Then start on the firewall and sheet metal to body

Moving the wheel opening back, and adding 3”
in the last picture you can see how much it was moved with the original bumper in place

Don’t throw away those used drums! Lol after a slight stretch they make a great wheel tub.
