Perfect!

I was going to comment but ...ohhh ... shiny stuff ...???

I could be tempted. Please PM me with the details ....

Been wanting a quality first hand review of those. When are you available for viewing? ?

Looks like I missed some great stuff here during date night / family breakfast. All I can say is that if these modern goodies still count as “keeping it classic”, then count ...me ...IN!

Awesome! Nice work! Thanks for all the tips - I wish I would have called you on Monday LOL. So ours is a little further along than @wheee! has let on. Agreed it was a little trickier that it looks - it took a few whacks to come up with something I was even ready to send over to Mark. And I was going to call you and say "I need to know which 2/3rds of this you want" as the spacing is symmetrical but uneven on the six also. I like what you did. I will let Mark post his when he is ready.

You should make that into one of those inspirational posters .... “...committed ...”

I saw what you did there ?

Those doors are beautiful ! Fantastic work. Jelis???

I think I am going to be over LOL!

Thank you!

Outriggers are a great idea! Removable or foldable when you don’t need them! ?

Please tell us about the Strokers...you can’t just throw that out there. Need details ?

So much great stuff! Which package did you order?

Very cool project! Two thoughts: consider widening your base, and lowering the center of gravity...just in case she spins or seizes Hope this helps!

Fixed ! Got a set! ( I know no one will see it later but) Damn! That looks so much better than the patch job ....

Passenger side came out fine ... practice practice ? now back to work to (hopefully) clean up the driver’s side ....

True, and time. If I had to get paid for this I would starve to death

Thanks Captain. I am fairly new to this but I’m stubborn....

Great find!

Very nice and look to be in decent shape. Can I ask what those set you back?

PS ... Sometimes I hear people ask if the bead is really necessary? (Probably because it isn’t that easy to roll a bead in 18 ga...) Well, dimples but no bead ... Versus dimples with a bead ... Notice how much stiffer the panel is? It can basically support its own weight while balancing on Bertha. So, yes, the bead is important !

Been a busy (non-240z) week. Finally got some fun time at the shop .... You can guess where this is going ...basically with all the work I’ve put in on this chassis, the following patch job was not going to be acceptable: Yeah I know no one will see it, but I’ll know.... @disperyon recently covered how to fab these so Just the highlights: Laying them out on 18 ga ... Drilled out with the Blair hole cutter (Amazon)... A new cryptocurrency? Dimple dies and the press .... Rolling the beads with Big Bertha .... And voila ! I made a mistake marking the lower edge so it is a bit messed up. Hopefully I can clean it up and finish the passenger side tomorrow. For those with a keen eye, yes they are deliberately a little different than factory. I left the rear section boxed so I can run it straight off the edge of the floor kit (Zeddfindings) to the rear wheel arch. And at the front I left it a little longer so that it follows the edge of the Zeddfindings floors and left an unfinished piece to tie in to the firewall. Should look a lot better than the patch (even though no one will see it LOL)

Agreed. So I usually just use Montana Shipping Company for everything that is free shipping in US or just wont ship to Canada and just drive down and get it every 3 to 6 months. Saves plenty over time.

Just tried to order the bead roller dies for 274. Doesn’t give free shipping. Will try again tomorrow.
