A little something was missing

Looks good brutha. I should bring mine down and we should grill together!

[aklackner]

Haven’t had a chance to get well anything actually done but...

Picked up the new custom SS hardlines, mocked up in place here. Not perfect but seem close enough to massage into place.

Waiting.

Waiting.

The paint turned out so nice it’s forced me to re-evaluate plans to re-use a lot of old hardware, so costs are continuing to increase with need to source more fasteners,clips, etc as well as look for options to recondition brackets and other bits. Not really a bad problem to have but I’ve been short on time and play funds lately.

Hoping to be able to start making some progress again towards the end of June and if things go well start to transferring suspension and powertrain in late July.

The upside to this is the ppg is getting a good lengthy chance to cure up!

On a related note does anyone have a recommendation on a place to do some abrasive blasting/powder coating in LA/SFV?

[Dave7CDMTYPER]

I know a powder coater, but he's way over in riverside. Good prices though. I'll text you.

[noahf]

if you need me to courier things to riverside i can for you. i drive from near you to near riverside daily.

also, i have been looking into cerakote for some parts on the CTR. i just havnt had time or spare parts to get them done yet.

[DC231]

It's been over a month since you've posted any updates I hope all is going well your way. Looking forward to seeing some progress from you soon.

[aklackner]

All is good, just short on time to get back into the build.

It’s sort of been family event and house project season lately. The shift in focus has helped while the fun funds recover from paint and custom hard lines.

The good news is I should be wrapping up with the house projects for now in the next couple weeks, I have $900 in Honda seals and hardware on the way, and should get the rest of the parts I need to layout the custom lines for the WMI setup today.

[Stin1]

Looking forward to seeing the updates. I try to purchase my parts in smaller quantities to avoid sticker shock and I refuse to add up what I have spent, it would probably make me sick. Lol. I am curious to see what $900 in seals and hardware look like . I know it can add quite quick tho. Loving the front end.
