Well... Nothing really going on with the build other than Shiro's new shoes showing up. Had some good momentum going, hopeful to regain it in a few weeks.
First look... :metal: Attachment 1343340 Checking fitment. Attachment 1343341 |

Worked on Shiro's frame tonight, specifically engine mount tabs and mounts. I also installed replacements for the factory brackets that support the upper shock bar, the P.O. removed them for some reason. I feel fortunate a friend has a little honey hole for parts like these, thanks brutha! ;) Hope to have it on the ground with the engine mounted this weekend... fingers crossed! :metal: Pics...

Finished up the mockup with the rear coilovers and set the chassis on the ground for the first time in a while. Gonna throw the engine and trans in this weekend so I can work on the trans mount.

The engine is in the frame and the transmission crossmember has been modified and installed. It's been maybe 2 years since I've welded anything... and it shows. :eek:

So, I've been all WOO-HOO because the chassis is coming together. High fives all around, knuckle bumps, jump and bumps just like after a touchdown. Then I breakout out the angle grinder and a stripping disc to investigate a sketchy area on the drivers door lower hinge pillar. Then the I'm all :eek: then :dohh: and I :cuss: the P.O. before sitting down to :whine:. The question is, do I replace or repair?
Checkout the lame attempt to hide the rust with some rattle can white paint. Attachment 1355175 And wallah! The rust free becomes, well... not so much. Attachment 1355176 Another spot on the inside of the pillar. Attachment 1355177 |
Re: Project: Shiro
Tough to tell from the pics, but looks like they could be patched.
|
Re: Project: Shiro
When you get that rocker off the whole bottom of that pillar will probably be gone also. New pillar patches are available for those areas.
