Did you just fix the fender, or did this escalate into a complete paint job?BS'er formally known as Rebeldryver

Nope, just fixed the damage areas, blended it in and cleared the whole fender and extension.Originally posted by Scott Liggett View PostLast edited by Joe Grippo; July 10, 2013, 05:35 AM.Comment

Joe - are you running silver painted 'glass bumpers?
Nice work - LOVE this car!There's always something new to learn.Comment

Yup, just the front, the rear bumper was/is an NOS piece. Same guy (Glenn) did the 'glass front bumper, valance and hood about 7-8 years ago. All 'glass parts are from Crites Performance parts http://critesperformanceparts.com/, they have Falcon Parts...just sayin'...Originally posted by milner351 View Post

So per request here are a few shots of my Roll Cage and interior, focusing on the down bars through the top of the dash....
Left side close ups...
Yeah, I went through two dash caps trying to get the trimming tight around the bars, I can live with this....and you can see where I scratched the shit out the bars taking the dash in and out a hundred times... Right side...
Hope this helps Jason...

Man that is clean Joe! One question, it seems to pul a little right on the launch, you correct it so cleanly when it touches down in the video it's hard to tell, but there could be a few .01's in it if it went dead straight. Or, is that run on the video just an anomaly?Drag Week 2006 & 2012 - Winner Street Race Big Block Naturally Aspirated - R/U 2007 Broke DW '05 and Drag Weekend '15 Coincidence?Comment

I'd say it was probably an anomaly Bill. It usually goes pretty straight, though Beaver has a very narrow groove and I may have drifted out to the edge.Originally posted by CDMBill View Post
I don't remember having to steer it much, the other in-car video seemed like status quo...Last edited by Joe Grippo; January 6, 2014, 11:51 AM.Comment

MAN. That is a excellent build. I have just started building a very similar (albeit will not be as nice) and have about 1.5 million questions for you. Mine is really light in the front end yet
