My TSM build thread

I've got to take some pics at the chassis shop. They have the chute mount done and they are starting on the aluminum exhaust now.

Nice build.... Please keep the pics coming...

Very Nice!

Looks good dude

While the car is at the chassis shop, I built this:

legal to 8.50

Wow, very nice build,very nice car. Skidman.

The cage looks really good. What did you paint it with?

Got any overall shots of the whole car with the new wheels?

The paint is rustoleum hammered black, put it on with foam brushes and a foam roller. Looks real good in spots and not so good in others. No turning back on it now though. Painted the seat mounts with the same paint last night. The Kirkey seat covers are really close in color to the cage and the headliner and door panels are getting covered in the same material.
The lower a arms are off right now and I'm putting more spring in the front, it will be at least a month before it is on the ground with the wheels.

Backed up and started over on fuel system. I tried to save money on hose and fittings and wasn't happy with how it ended up.
Running 2 #8 hoses from cell to -12 filter, out of pump thru -10 filter and check, -10 to just below firewall and #8 dual feed to fuel rails.

Pump and inlet filter in trunk, outlet filter and check under car.

Went with Russell proclassic hose and ends this time.

3 sets of front springs, 2 sets of shocks and 1 set of QA1 R series coilovers later, I have the ride height that makes me happy.



The rear has Wolfe adjustable perches and uses 2.5 QA1 coilover springs.
