Absolutely AWESOME...You just keep it goin Steve..Fiberglass and stainless Willys coupe comin up... Good on ya... If nothing else,,it gives the rest of us ideas..Now,if only I could weld stainless....

I'm trying Robin

"Oh my god" were the words that I was thinking, then read the other comments. Steve I wouldn't even know how to buff and smooth something like that, no less make it look perfect! I have to rethink your original posts of keeping this one simple and to a tight budget! And this is just for the exhaust!

Best laid plans and all that Steve

Thanks to Jason (fatguyz) who collected my TH400 from Steve & Mitch (thanks boys) who in turn collected it from Zane at Zannetec (more thanks Zane)

I bought the Art Carr with Transbrake box secondhand with 2nd gear slipping and Zane kindly rebuilt it for me, I would highly recommend Zane he does an excellent job and is a nice old boy too



Over the Autumn i need to strip it back to bare aluminium and epoxy prime and paint Porsche India Red to match the motor and also fit the larger capacity aluminium trans pan i have.

















Another recommendation is for Paul at Southern Axles, Paul has raced for years and really knows his stuff, His shop is only a block away from mine so was the obvious choice to assemble the axle parts i had collected, Diff case is a brand new item with 3.89 Zoom gears mounted on a 31 spline Spool, with a 1350 yoke, all new bearings etc etc, again this needs to be epoxy primed and painted, i'm not sure what colour the back axle is gonna be yet, suggestions welcomed.

You could paint the rear housing red with the motor and trans or match the color of the plex windows. That would be striking!

Now thats an idea Scott, can't do Orange like the windows though as thats a chevy colour.

OH yea then it wouldn't run right

On saturday i finally finished the drivers side header, took longer than i thought !!! Now the really hard part is making the other side match.

I just wanted the bottom of the collector showing and easy access to the wing nut for uncapping.


















Its getting dark early now, winters coming !!!
