I am starting this thread "in medias res" with the car as it is today.
Then I will post a confusing mix of past and present, showing the project updates and process. Promise to nerd out on the details. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) . |

Here is a good example of doing things the hard way.. The goal is to modify the sheet metal structure around the jack mounts to make room for the GT-oil lines. To do this modification I would recomend the following. Buy the replacement sheet metal part, cut and weld. I choose to make a stamping tool (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
One of the failed attemts and the male tool. One of the almost good parts after some work, and the female tool. Welding in the fabricated part. Test fitting my brand new paper oil lines. |
