He build the chassis from scratch? Oh damn, even more mystery!

I think Kurt said he stayed In a Holiday inn Express once.

Are they meant to look like they are flipping someone off!??

If not it does to me...I like it!

Maybe you mentioned it before, but i didn't catch it, but what spindles did you use?

Front spindles are from Strange engineering.

More importantly, where/how did you learn to do all this? Or does the chassis kit come with detailed instructions?

No instructions.

I did stay at a holiday inn once. It was ok.

I think he built the holiday inn before he stayed in it.

Strange engineering struts are common, but I’m not sure if that is what Kert used.

I believe Kert said it was a Jerry Bickel chassis blueprint he worked off from. He supplied all his own materials and skills....he is a fabricator/welder ya know!

Edited for chassis blueprints

Figured the antisquat line today, set the 4 link bars and rechecked the square on the rear axle.

Started trimming the side lexan.

Gathering that last few required parts for the trans. Thinking I'll buy the stage 8 flexplate bolts.

Trans was fitted up. Transmission belly pan is a done deal. Drivers side door was readjusted and window fitted.

 

[folkenheath]

Lookin good! Are those button head screws or rivets holding the trans belly pan up?

Button head screws. Left it easily removable for service.

Trans pretty much ready for install.

I like the smell of a good transbrake solenoid in the morning.
