Past Projects
In the fall of 2001 Ryan and I started assembling and modifying cars together. All started in different forms, some from scratch, others from near full build requiring only tweaking and tuning. Nevertheless, all of these cars have been ours… we have a tendency to go through a lot: lots that never even made mention here, and some that I spent hours writing and thinking about. It is some form of A.D.D…. really. In the first few years after we teamed up, neither of us managed to make it through a single season with one car. They came and went. Mostly it was because we liked to dream, but it was also partly because there was always someone willing to buy. Cash just looks so good.
Note: These charts are for fun. Don’t confuse them for us being hard core and bad ass. Check it out.
Warren, came by last night to help us with some welding in the engine bay of the 86. If you've never talked to me about our car, you wouldn't know that we have begun to experience the rapid chassis deterioration in AE86 so often talked about, but seldom corrected. There are various seams all over our car that have begun to separate. Specifically, in the engine bay, the junction of the frame rail and the bulkhead, a couple places on the strut tower, under fender, and the lower rad support. To prolong the life of our AE86 and add some chassis stiffness, we have added over 120 welds in the engine bay. The rear half of the chassis comes next, with focus on the rear shocks towers, and panhard rod pick up. Check out last nights pics. Thanks again Warren![...]
