The adventures of Danny Mac and Pirate Hooker
I haven't been motivated to work on it recently, but I really want to get it done. So there should be some updates in the next month or so

I was just talking with Danny-o about this today...... maybe IRP can make a trip south to the SBG Palace during the frosty winter months for a little collaboration

lol, seriously? When I have some time I'll update this thread haha. Car still isn't street ready, but the engine runs great. Getting very close though, actually typing this from my garage....finishing up the battery box.
You know who that is!
Alright slight update time. I've been procrastinating and spending way too much time working on house projects instead of car stuff and putting off working on real cars in favor of digital ones. I Racing is way too addictive. Also been neglecting Pirate hooker in favor of clunkers (I'll be updating that thread soon as well)
Pirate hooker currently moves under it's own power! Though not very far since it looks like a car straight out of mad max. Over the next few weeks I'm hoping to have the interior assembled completely, but to do that I have the following things to complete first.
- Re-wire fuel pump
- Finish bin battery tray (using Miata battery)
- Figure out where the hell to mount my amp
First time to the gas station in about nine years! It's not exactly street legal, so keep it on the down low.
Jhnrx7 built a pretty awesome rig and was nice enough to practically build mine too, but we made some improvements on the first version. We oriented the wheel, pedals and shifter as close as we could to the FD's layout. It took a lot of back and forth, but we got it damn close. Can't wait until Oculus Rift is released.....
Also not super exciting, but I installed the FEED wing.... Now I'll need to find some plugs for the unused holes on the hatch.
Just getting a little fresh air
More pics coming soon.

Things are all good over here. Need to get back to work on mine. It'd be cool to see what's happened to this and clunkers and the dedicated track car over the last few years. Hopefully more progress than me haha.
