Bunch O’ Wheels (and other stuff)

There really is nothing like going to a drift event, helping to pull it off and watching all your friends have fun while your car is sitting on jack stands haha!!  Anyway, I went directly to the shop after the event around midnight and resumed work on the green two tone car.  Continuing on Sunday, I installed the new SPL toe arms.  These are some really quality pieces and you can see in one of the photos that when installing, it’s always a good idea to have one disassembled so you can approximate your thread engagement better.  The alignment on the green car was really close so I haven’t adjusted them to their exact position as of yet.  I also started to transfer the fuel tanks as the practice car, which from hence forth will be known as the “Fleur De Lis” had a lot of rust inside it’s tank.  Other than that, a few wheels have shown up things are progressing normally.  I’m in the process of picking the paint colors for the shop and the bench is almost finished.  I can’t wait to get a stereo in there, music from the Driod doesn’t quite get it done.

Peace

Practice Car : Prep work

Finally getting around to working on the Practice Car.  I’m swapping the suspensions between the two S13’s as the two tone doesn’t need anything other than stuff to roll around on and get painted.  I need a name other than “Practice Car”….
