Very observant Jesse, and it gets even more curious. Mike why are you and Wrangler109 posting from exactly the same IP?

Its my friend. We are the same internet connection at school through out the building, its a complete network. He sits about 20feet away and we PM each other, and I tell him to check my thread.

I dont know why he always puts *bump* in front of it.

Thanks for the comments.

Frame Rail look's great!

How detailed are you going to make the chassis? I'm curious to see what treatment you give the crossmembers and their supports. I always like the way chassis for these old cars look, two beefy rails with an almost delicat looking network between tham. That will be a treat to see, once you've got the chassis done. Now on with it!

Detail on the chassis, not really sure. I would like a very clean look with some detail. I dont exactly know as of now. I kind of shootinf from my ass on this one.

After checking AF I'll be on to finishing up the main bondoing of the left rail.

To everyone:

Thank you for all the comments, they are really driving me to work on it. But where is 86_SR5?

Mike what about Brake and Fuel lines with a Fuel tank. Just an idea. That is all i can think of.

Check, check, check. I will have all of those. The fuel lines will be silver blind cord. It represents braided hoses really well. I will probably fabricate the fuel cell out of 24Ga.- 16Ga. Steel. I need to find a good looking gas cap.

Howielong · #**279** 05-03-2004, 04:37 PM

Cool. Making a fuel tank could be hard. What about straps holding the fuel cell on to the frame.

I have built boxes out of metal before, should be too much of a hassle. It will be all one piece of metal. As far as attaching to the frame, I will make it clean with metal support pieces, I cant really explain it, sorry.

Woohoo, alarm rang. Bondo is done drying. Time to go back to work, be back in about 45minutes or so!

Howielong · #**281** 05-03-2004, 04:45 PM

It is all good then.

86_SR5 · #**282** 05-03-2004, 05:23 PM

Nice. The frame looks real cool mike. Now finish it so you can drop a hemi in it!

PyRoTeKniKz · #**283** 05-03-2004, 06:01 PM

Holy sh*t Mike! This thing looks incredible! and I dont even like Hot Rods!

Thanks for the comments.

Thought that might be the case. Bit bizzare bumping a thread that is still well up the main page

Shouldn't you guys be studying or something?

Thanks man, I wondered where you disappeared to. Instead of finishing the frame then dropping the Hemi in it, I need the Hemi to finish the frame. I dont want to get to ahead of myself without parts.

I dont think he realizes the date, I dont exactly know. Or maybe its because I jokingly say "Hey Josh, go bump my thread its four posts down, haha".

As far as this studying thing you just mentioned. I am unfamiliar with this word "studying". Its Drafting/Architecture we hate the teacher, therefore we hate the class. Also our teacher is an idiot, he teaches a class about CAD/CAM and doesnt know how to use the damn program. He thinks it takes 4 weeks to draw a house in AutoCAD when it takes me 2 1/2 days. Therefore I just toy around for the rest of the 3 weeks on AF or drawing rims on CAD.

Its funny when he comes around and sees a big rim in 3D, man that pisses him off. He comes up to my computer and says "Mike, quit drawing wheels and get back to work". So I quit drawing rims and started designing stuff for the hot rod which has mysteriously vanished. I can not find it at all on the network.
