Nice job Rick! I know how much work it is to put these sort of events on (from the two air shows I was a director for) and commend you and your team for your outstanding efforts and excellent results…Thank you! Devin Martin

Randy, there are a few food trucks with a fairly wide menu options. Devin

Ben, can you post a pic of your car so it will be easy to find for us (I’m sure it will be anyways )? Devin

I’m in too. Just say when & where! What works best for those that may be more local and just visiting for the day? Devin Martin Abilene, Texas

Sorry to hear that Nick…glad you are back on your feet again! Gaps are looking good and look forward to seeing your progress again. Cheers, Devin

Decided that it was time to blast it all apart and accomplish the final welding of the chassis, prep & paint, and installing some of the paneling before going further with the build. So back onto the rotisserie it goes…

After watching several of these videos and reading about the G86.20 and the G96 are very similar and share common parts. The G86.20 trans reverse works just as Darius described with my trans. The 1-6 speeds are an “H” pattern and the reverse is a hard 9 o’clock and forward throw for those...

Ok got my alternator and Sanden 508 compressor delivered and mocked up. I had to lower the AC mount one bolt hole (three total available) on its base in order to get it low enough to avoid contact with the rear bulkhead. Since my motor & trans combo sits about 1” higher than the bottom of the...

Are these glass or plastic lenses/housing?

Got the kit in today. Looks really nice quality and MADE IN USA! Here are a couple initial pics of the AC bracket mounted inversely on its base. Once I source the alternator and compressor, I’ll post more with it all mounted. With my scratch built bulkhead, it’s looking good to keep it all...

I ordered CVF Racing‘s part# 302-ACO-SYSTEM-SHORTY-34 which is a V-belt setup for my FMS short water pump and aftermarket 3 or 4 bolt balancer. I plan to invert the AC mounting bracket to set it in a mid to low mount place. I have yet to source the alternator & Sanden 508 compressor but will...

My “original” skin sill covers were about 1/4” different in length from side to side as well as the non symmetrical dimensions of the front and rear clamshells. I would make the alignment and thrust angle correct to the recommended specifications and be less concerned with the original...

So i decided it was time to address the AC system and what I am going to do with the v-belt, alternator, and air conditioning compressor. After lots of research and seeing what’s commercially available (and lots of suggestions here), I called CVF Racing and ordered their 302 ACO system. It...

Hey Rick, I just submitted a donation for one of the reunion ride-along laps but didn’t see a way to show my availability days. Unfortunately I’m not staying for Sunday’s events but would love to ride along on Friday or Saturday…I sent a separate email/note with my request. Just thought...

Side sill graphed together incorporating the stretch. Lines are starting to come together (albeit rough) and will be good enough to go to bodywork stage. Next will be an upper door splice to correct the windshield to upper door line. I’m still amazed how the various sources of all these...

Well it was time today to “weld” the side sill covers into final length and form. They were 66” in length (widest point wheel opening to wheel opening) and supposedly taken from a skin mold of an original car. Even though the original wheel base was 95” and splitting my skin around the spider...

Ok a couple more pics. The rear part of the back window stops just below the air cleaner top. Just for reference, I have the 40 on my four post lift which makes it about a foot in the air and my Chevy 2500 is about a car length behind it. Ordered and just got delivered today a set of Lotus...

Warren, love what I see on your oil catch can setup. Anything you would do differently? How is it working for you and does it have a line going directly back to the pan or what do you do for draining/servicing it? Devin

I don’t have a direct pic looking in/out of the bulkhead window. That air cleaner certainly fills the space without being too thick. Here’s a couple other pics from different angles and will get the direct shots after work today. I am thinking of building a custom “turkey pan” to help direct...

Dropped in the motor & trans today. Things are looking pretty much as planned and expected. Will have some trimming to do on the GW valve cover oil filler neck to stay below contact with the clamshell, but the top of the covers themselves are about an inch+ from touching. I tried the largest...
