So are you going to be home this weekend? If you are I would love to swing by.
effutuo101
don't hate the playa...hate the game..

Jon,

where are you sitting tomorrow night?
effutuo101
before anybody asks. That is my wifes BMW R75/6 on the left. The R75/5 hot rod is a fun project and yes, that is RZ350 body work stacked up on it.

Tomorrow night? I'm going to the hockey game with my work.
effutuo101
Yes, I am going with Angela, Kieran, his girlfriend Met for Angela's work. So we will be hanging out ringing cow bells.

Chris,

Where can I find more info/pictures of this car. What is its history? What is the history of the smaller square flares?

Forgive me if this was somewhere else.

Kyle

Hi Kyle,
Not much history. they came off of another car and Jeff thought I would like them. We had spoken about doing a small flare car after seeing the picture of the white and lime green car. So, when these came up, we went for it. They are steel with some filler.
The cool thing with these is that you don't need the GT rockers. The thread has almost all of the pictures I have for this car. I will add 1 more I took late last night.
In the end, the car will be Pheonix Red, pewter trim and black bumpers. It should be fun.

After I am done, I will post a before, during and after picture

Definitely. I guess I was wondering about the white and lime green car. I love the livery and it is actually giving me some ideas idea.gif biggrin.gif
Ferg
Look great Chris aktion035.gif
effutuo101
Thank you Ferg! Angela says the 2.2 is almost as fun as your 2.7 was. It takes a bit more work, but, she goes!
effutuo101
Got some more stuff done today. It was sort of sureal.

Turn signals in and wired check
Running lights converted to white LED, blocked off from amber portion of front turn signal. Check
all turn signals work check
all hazards work check
head lights work and go up and down check
trim pices for window surronds in check


Tomorrow through Wednesday:
New vinyl on dash
Pull plugs and check
check spark and fuel
Start and run out
Work on front bumper
work on front air dam
Wednesday pick up side skirts and stuff

The pile of crap in my garage for this car keeps getting smaller. Good
The pile of crap in my garage for the RZ is down to 1 or 2 pices. good
The pile of crap in my garage for the r75 is reducing rapidly. good.
Maybe I will get all three projects done in the next few weeks. That would be fantasitc!

Updated picutes are coming this week.

Hiya Gint!
Hiya Ferg!

How are things in the winter wonderland? Hope all is well with the families!
Gint
Everything's cool here Chris. You?
effutuo101
It has been a wierd winter. No snow to speak of, and a couple of long sections of sunny and warm (50 deg) weather. Which means more time to spend on the car without freezing.
We did have one streach of really cold weather. I had Angela out putting a new bumper on her jeep at 19 degrees. The next day was 50. She wasn't very happy about that. But, the bumper was on and good.

effutuo101
lots of grain from my cell phone, but, here is a door.

That looks really good Chris! drunk.gif
effutuo101
Thanks! The dash and the back pad should look the same. More picts to come this weekend.

oh SNAP! very nice. I am with Rich. give it an off topic and let us know what you have done. I have a few items to finish up before I sell this RZ and look for a titled frame and motor. I see a 500cc twin 2 stroke in my future. With the TZ body work!
effutuo101
Good to see you today Dan! Stop by any time!
PeeGreen 914
Dan stopped by today? Wow, been a while since we have seen him smile.gif

Hope all is well Dan beerchug.gif

Good to catch up Chris and yes, I'll have to crash a Teener Tuesday soon. It's been a while since I've been able to fart in Troy's general direction. drunk.gif

The 914 looks really good, the flares are crazy cool! Very unique.

Not to hijack, but I tried to purschase my old blue car back. Current owner won't sell though. So not sure what to do at this point. I don't think I have the energy to build another one. confused24.gif

Reeeeeeealy don't want to get into all that again. laugh.gif
effutuo101
Dan,
We have the technology to make it bigger, better stronger. And help out. We could do another one and have it well sorted out. We could even practice on one first to make sure we have the details sorted.... happy11.gif
Root_Werks
Yeah, yeah. Don't try to get me all juiced up, I'm still only surpervising your roof project. biggrin.gif
