Good time for those outside shots eh? Unless your hiding all new paint and don't want to post pics. :rollin:


Still waiting, huh? This car hasn't seen sunshine in over a year. Trust me, there is no killer paint job that I'm hiding. I am way behind in budget for paint work. If it wasn't for the wheels I could pull off the sleeper look when it's up and running.

I'm in the same boat. Everywhere I turn I need more money to get this thing running.  I thought of getting rid of my ponies and putting the turbines back on it for the same reasons... I ate through my paint budget too :(

Funny. I actually really wanted this car when I bought it to keep as a DD. It already had the 5.0 swap, was fairly clean and a fun car to drive. But when it is apart, you always find something else you want to add. I have decided to put my cycle up for sale to help pay for everything. I'm sure Bob is in the same spot as I am.

Money is easily thrown out the window when you aren't ready, lol.  Things get in the way, and projects come to a halt.  I've been stuck for a few months now.  Winter porject....yeah right.  More like 10 winters project.  Sorry, I'm just trying to make you guys feel better, lol.

I am going with a fuel cell in the trunk as well.  In looking at yours, where did you get it?  And especially the white reservoir you have?  Here's the look I was going for, but yours seems more practical...especially for street use.

You got it!


Havi- there is nothing visibly wrong with your setup. I actually wish that I had bought a bigger tank.

I was so close, but had to put it back up for the tank and methanol lines. It should be outside and up on the trailer by the end of Nov.

Wow, a month since my last post. I have been working on the car when time allows. All the work that I was going to have someone else do for me, has been completed. I went and met with the tuner yesterday and now have an appointment for Nov 26th. He gave me a good estimate on hp, but we will see. He said he will leave it up to me when to stop. I'll post up some pics of what progress has been made.
