go away....none of this "never mind, have a look at this flame thrower" crap in my photo album.....we are here to look at the wonders of modern car surgery, not fire

yeah no need to do clutch mods for me ange....who needs a clutch when you can lazy shift it (not a fan of autos but when ppl are giving them away.....)

was even more cutting going on today to make way for the chassis rails, the whole car was acutally starting to bow from sitting on the hoist so i had to add some supports so i could still get the doors open
and you say i dont need a rollcage adrian

you arnt spaming us are you burke
those things are pure wank factor right up there with fake blowoff valves

Before you finish I think you should lower it a bit more pigdog..

I think Burke is either on commission or a shareholder

Pigdog.... Nice work, that fits in there quite nicely with plenty of room left for access.

Steve

A shareholder!?! i'm flat out buying something from GO LO! ps. sorry PIGDOG i'll stop.

Quote:

well actually, the front needs to be lower so that the sill can sit about 10mm off the ground the whole way along ie sitting on my new chassis rails

yes it would with big fire wall and trans tunnel mods

this is cool, will it be doing mad IRS camber'd skids at datnats?

v6 kewl. rad support not

coz 350 chevs are just lying around every where......well ok there was one sitting next to the ute for a while, but thats not the point

vn v6=free
350 chev=$1000+
im not spending money on this ute....just time

yeah ripping skids at datnats would be good.....dont know if it will be ready by then though, and CBF'd taking it
so when it does go in a burnout comp ill make sure it gets video'd for all to see

whats wrong with the radiator support? only doing the rusts job a bit quicker and neater...as there will be a radiator in that spot so no point it being taken up by metal
will put a bar or something across there though so there is a bit of strength

oh... the engine looks heaps neater now, took all the crap off that i dont need while fitting
and the engine mounts are almost done, just waiting on my brother to get home so he can weld them all up

what gearbox u putting behind it?

Looks tough.

gearbox .... transmission
saw the ute this arvo and it's coming along, ute tray + angle grinder, welder and irs = an easy fit

Why not?

Someone's already done this to a ute here in Adelaide. It sold recently and I haven't seen it since.

If I didn't already have so many projects I'd whack a VG in a certain wagon of mine just for something different...

exactly, why not a v6....shit easy to fit in and plenty of power for a 1200 ute

standard 180b springs......in a 180b IRS setup
with a custom chassis, lots of cutting

and yes that is a commodore v6, done most of the engine mounts today
