Current state of things...

More later,

But for now -

I think you've taken the weight reduction thing too far this time! ;)

Nice one Sammm!

Can't wait to hear what is going on with the car. I've heard the LS1 isn't too heavy.

Here's an idea for a light weight design.

Funny you should mention that... I did have to call and consult with him though.

I hope I don't have to do an engine swap again. Once was enough for me.

You droppin in a 1.8?

Bean,

Looks like you made some progress last night... any co-conspiritors? or are you doing this Solo? I will be in town next weekend to put the built motor in my red car... I am a little nervous...

Spill the threebeans on your plan....

Chris

Where in Dallas can you find a thumb for $125. That's pretty cool, can you buy other body parts there.

There is an underground market for just about anything you could dream up.... Especially in a big city like Dallas. ;)

Cool, I might pick up a wider foot so I can heel/toe in the Miata without turning my foot sideways.;)

I think Bean is finished....here it is!!!!

Sorry fellas...


TtT... that's close! ;)


Here ya go... thanks to Thumbs, I mean Titus, for the help in "removing" the windshield (that guy has a heavy hand!) It was supposed to be out in one piece. :punchout:

I hope to have it out to the body and paint shop soon...

So what's the plan??

Replacing the hood and fender... and painting the vehicle either the same Mariner blue or Sunkist orange (Gwen seems to like that idea better...)

But it will still be an ugly little car... only with a better paint job. And while the engine is out I'm replacing it's cracked header, leaky rear seal, and a bunch of other little nagging issues.

Sweet! :D

I'm with Gwen on the color! :afro:

Hey........ I got the three wheels and no windshield correct!:D

By the way, don't let this guy anywhere near your windshield... ;)

And why he's using a 1/2" breaker bar to remove my bumper I'll never know! \

Between ccage, Sean, and Titus' help, the car should be ready for paint soon...

I Love Orange! This was my old Vette.

OK... maybe I missed it somewhere... but why are you taking it all apart & having it painted?

Why not? It's been part of my plan with this car since it's beginning to have it painted again. I've finished the VW project and the Honda is again running strong. I've got some local help to dismantle and reassemble the car and I've got the space and a little bit of a budget for it.
