Oo I see.

 

a little update... pretty much done with the garage.. just need to screw the walls and ceiling on the spray booth and add another shelf or two, and change the lights..

first off sorry for the shitty pics i was in manual mode and forgot to change all my settings plus it being freezing cold out i didnt care...

a little teaser of whats "planned" for next year...


you can also see a sample piece on the door....


and the garageee!

 

Is that Flat White?????

 

god that thing looks amazing

 

yes sir =)

thanks!

 

you gonna use that bumper up there or you want to sell it?

 

99 speeeeeec

 

im not too sure.. ive had it for almost a year now and i havent decided on the look i want... i REALLY want the sanai front but might keep that as a spare or for the track or when i feel like fitting in? haha idk it needs work tho....

 

a little update! still working on the garage... i think i want one or two more shelvves... other than that once its garbage day i can toss some junk and should be able to get the car in and ge to work!



Stole this idea, tool cubby. my favorite storage yet.


added a side shelf on the left of the tool box and added another shelf above.. (which was a fail. i didnt think to measure the height or anything so i occasionally bump my head.......) there will be a light underneath the shelf projecting onto the table


managed to clean up some too


pics of the booth... still not done, need add light, run an extension cord, make a permanent ceiling, finish wall that faces the garage door, add shelves inside for powder coating materials

 

why you keeping the busted fan that broke last time I was there lol what kind of work does that bumper need?

 

Sick wheels.

 

I so need to clean up my garage. Now that I'm done with the mayor "fab work" with the interior panels I guess I could.

Cool project. Threads like this motivate the hell out of me.

 

lol it works on and off... found out the wire is loose so i just need a new plug and redo it..

it has some spiderwebing and hairline cracks..

thanks!


thanks man.... the fd has been seeing the back seat as im on this whole nee feen for tools and fixing up the garage... im now on garagejournal.com ahah awesome forum for motivation to fix up your garage!

love ur build thread aswell.. excuse me if i missed it but what vmic are u gonna use?



since a few post revived this thread i guess ill make a mini update...
just have a few parts on order...

FC oil cooler (going to try to fab up my own VMIC with single oil cooler sandwiched between IC/RAD
heater core! yay finally heat.. now if i go to deals i dont have to stop every hour and a half because im so cold and need to pee!

another thread if you want to keep up on the oil cooler/vmic setup im planning

 

I spy those racing hearts i need to buy off u.

i forgot all about the fuse box incident...

 

hahah yeahh ill give yours back prob the next time i see you...

and the racing harts! i forgot too... buy em now so i can take my rims off and put em up there... no room right now!

ps need the tb! gonna start porting!

 

I'm not sure what VMIC I want, kind of waiting on some one t get the new Greddy unit so I'm going to stick with the Pettit SMIC for a little bit.

 

Yea, gotta dig up the TB. Haven't entered the garage in weeks.


how about those 99 spec's... they could port matched to the gasket size and the wg. Port them like Garfinkle offers but keep them still in sequential form.

Might have to scoop those too, my twins are giving me a warmup smoke show.

 

haha why not? no fd love?

i also remembered i have ur alternator... i saw how dirty it was and i was like wtf??? then i was like haha cant be mine, then remembered i borrowed yours just incase lmao...

99 blah im over em, they arent 100% but it you want em ill sell em uber cheap..

more pics, did some work, finally cleaned out the garage space to pull the FD in and have the garage in good enough shape to start car work.

(bike is no longer on top of spray booth, they now have my fenders on top of it)

service cart with various supplies, lubricants, some cleaners, clamps, and other various materials

the million dollar tool! ohh this is going to be a fun tool to play with... welding classes start the 19th!!

final sweap/last of the garbage to be tossed

the tools im working with..


temp plier rack (old cd rack) just got my plyworx plier rack

temp solution for my screwdrivers... not sure what organizers i wanna go with yet...


electrical stuff

electrical/heating stuff

 

and now some car pics... as she sits..


mm roll cage! im pretty sure im gonna have it powder coated pink... if not it will be white...




my fruitiness..


the silver kills it, stands out way too much and is distracting. thus im think im shying away from a chrome color... im a not 100% sure what color to paint the engine block and accessories.. im thinking of ceramic coating the housings white and the irons/acc. black. (both flat)

 

tuur down part duoo

seats and dash...i really hate it... i think im gonna rewrap it... i was going to just ripped the fabric off and redo it but i realized its attached to some foam so idk if i should just wrap over everything or rip it off and do my own...


random shot..


gutted interior... hopefully ill have the wires all labeled by today?


my mini work space lit up


finally got my plier rack from my other house and put it in!


what i was previously using for my plier rack... its actually a cd holder i took off of my old desk.. works awesome to hold my screwdrivers!



in the progress of making a dust trap for the sand blaster


light in the sand blast/powder coating booth!

 

I actually want to marry your garage :/

 

This is great. I love the car and garage. What Hobart is that (I have a Handler 187, it's great). I was wondering specifically about color-matched door handles on a white FD, it looks very nice. White is one of those colors that just really shows off the lines of the FD. Great Job!

 

Can you come by and clean my tool box ....... Verry neat - clean... Nice project....

 

ahahahah i want to marry your car....

i believe it is the hobart handler 180... idk if there is a difference.. but i might be making that up and it might be a 187? lol i havent even turned it on yet, im kind of intimidated by it... i start my welding classes on the 19! =)

the white handles arent by choice, i got the car like that but i definitely dont hate em.

hahah thank you, the garage got a lot of love this winter in preparation to work on the car... i actually got on garagejournal.com (forum) and if you think my garage is nice, they will blow your mind. a lot of my ideas are borrowed from other members... if you are considering fixing up your garage and need cheap solutions that is a GREAT site.
