That was a nice civic! Diggin' the rack and BBS's. How much did you have invested in that thing??

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

cant remember exactly... im thinkin bout 13k or so...i owned the car for bout 8 years though so that was over a long period of time

Got a email alerting me to updates on this thread. Didnt remember what truck it was, but remembered a dude called Coulter was building something I liked. I have enjoyed this build, and look forward to you finishing it.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

what size shocks did you use for the hood? thats cool, i may steal that idea from you if i dont make my brackets to make my hood tilt forward!!

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

Go to a junkyard and grab a set of early 90's LeSabre hood hinges. Should save you a little extra fab. Seen one on here a while back and it didn't look too difficult to do, even for the fab challenged like myself.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

i did awhile back, i got two sets to make them wider, now i just need to make some brackets that will bolt them to my inner fenders

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

nice work on the hood props!dig the fender wells

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

been following your progress for a while, really dig what you've done so far. looking forward to seeing it pull out of that cool garage.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

awesome build man i love the fab work! and x2 on the fenderwell/hinge kit..i too am interested in what size shocks you used..

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

thanx for the comments guys.. the shocks are 22 inches long.. not really sure how much weight they are rated for... a buddy of mine had them laying around so he gave them to me

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

Just checkin' on ya. Hope all is well. Looking forward to updates when you get a chance.:metal:

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

Looks great. I've enjoyed reading your build over the last couple of weeks. I'm all caught up now. You've done a awesome job. It's great to see the originality of what you've come up with. Hard to keep it this fresh when thousands of others are building the same trucks. Love the photography and the garage as well.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet
 

thanx man!!! knowing that people are watching for updates is a big help to keep working on this thing!! im getting pretty close though
