Hi again everyone. I'm starting a project that ends in L.S.O. (Locost Shaped Object). It will not be a traditional build in a sense that it will have a 5.0L engine, auto trans, power steering, power brakes, power seats, power mirrors, cruise control, and limited slip diff. The donor is a 1988 TBird and as I said in my previous build I want to use the donor in its entirety. This will include steering colume, instrument cluster, heater, various dash switches, and so on. Reason being is that I don't have the luxury of spending time at wrecking yards to find parts.
My bio is on page 1 of my previous build
http://www.locostusa.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=12234Once demolition is complete, I will be setting the eng/trans/diff on the build table to take the required measurements to build the frame around the components. I am using 1 1/4" .100" sq tubing for the base frame, 1" sq tube for the tunnel.
To date I have aquired the DOM tubing for the upper and lower A arms and diff trailing links, all required bushings, +4 nose from C.O.L.D., chrome 7" head lights, chrome Harley front signal lights. Today I ordered the rad (1969 Mustang 5.0L w/trans cooler).
I can't upload any pics - says "internal server error" or something like that.
