After getting the motor mounts made, it was time to redo the shock mounts. Not that they wouldn’t have worked but I did not like how they turned out. They now look a lot better and fit in with the car more. I’m not too thrilled with the angle that they are at so I may do something a bit more...

Ziploc baggies and zip ties help keep the mess a bit more minimal lol.

It’s been way too long. My son, Atlis, is now 7 weeks old and life is finally starting to slow down a little so I’m able to get back out to the shop. I’ve never really liked the way I did a few things on the roadster to make her a roller to move so I’m starting to redo it now. Startling with...

Thanks everyone. It’s really been one crazy ride this past year. Im really looking forward to so many different changes in my life.

Well guys, it’s been a while since I last posted. We found out right before Christmas that we’ll be welcoming a new rat rodder to this world in August. We’ve also made an offer on a different house with a 25x35 garage so waiting for all of that to go through before I can start working on the...

That’s a good one Mac. Unfortunately, it’s not the honeymoon that gets in the way of the build(s). I will be transplanting myself in Missouri because her kids’ family is all out there. So if anyone has a 3 or 4 position car hauler they would like to let me borrow, I would be very grateful lol.

Alright so this is gonna be a kinda long one and a surprise to most as I don’t post personal things on the internet so here it goes. Before finishing Leslie’s car this spring her and I had split up and somehow through fate, I got in touch with my high school sweetheart. She had recently got...

After taking a few days off, I finally figured out the gas pedal. And seeing as what I had was a bit too small for a brake, decided to make a different pedal for it.

I may be interested in letting it go. Had I read your comment before this weekend I would have brought it on my trip with me. I just drove through Minneapolis early this morning.

That’s my goal bud. I’ve gotta take this ol’ girl from Havre, Mt to Spokane, WA down to Salt Lake City and back up to Red Lodge, MT. There are lots of areas on the trip where we may not see a gas station for 100 miles so the further I can go, the better off I will be.

Got the tank brackets made today and then got the sump done up. I’ll have to install a couple of bungs up at the top to make it to where if I ever want to put EFI on it I can.

Been working on the fuel tank the last few days. All 16ga steel. Still need to do some finishing touches and work on the mounting brackets but it’s coming together.

And now the steering and the gauges I’ve decided to use.

Looks like I can finally load some pictures so here’s the rear suspension setup.

I went with AFCO street rod coil overs and chose 200lb springs.

Been a while since I posted last. Been busy getting things put together. Anyway, got the coil overs in and installed, ran the brake and fuel lines, and got the transmission cooler lines installed. Mounted the fan and the transmission cooler. I also got the body mounted, master cylinder bracket...

Got the rear suspension all attached. I think I’m gonna run coil overs to keep it simple. I’ll need to finish up the lower link brackets but it’s all attached so it’s a move in the right direction.

Parts came in last week but I had plans to spend the weekend with my fiancé and her kids at Mount Rushmore so I didn’t get anytime last week on the roadster. Got out to the shop yesterday to start on the rear suspension but I screwed the pooch on that so I had to start over. Got things put...
