Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.

Things are starting to happen and will be going even faster in the next month or so. I an getting it ready to head off to the media blasters by removing all rusted metal that will be replaced with new. This way we only pay to get blasted what is going to stay for the long hall. I am also test fitting the new panels so once it comes back it will fly together Here are a few pics from the last few days. I hope to have it all blown apart by Sunday after noon so it can hit the blasters in the next two weeks.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.

I'm amazed by your talent.

IMO, it takes some keen 'vision' to see how things 'should' come together when doing one-off stuff (should & do are two very different results). You seem to have the touch needed to make things right.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Thanks but it all comes down to not being afraid to try somthing new. And alot of practice


Well the floors were not as bad as most I have worked on but still need the usual work. The rocker box's are in real good shape and I cut the floor open bigger than I had to just so the blaster can get in their real good and then seal it all up with epoxy sealer. The kicks and A post bottoms are gone as are the inner and outer rockers but that is about it for rust problems. I figure about a day per side and it will be better (sealed on both sides!) then new.
