i just can't win....got some work done, but ran out of welder wire. lack of budget may stop things again for a couple of weeks.

join the club buddy. lol

Well said!

 

[dongrady]

pulled a rabbit out of the hat and got the wire for the welder. started boxing in around the seat and welded in the gussets at the bottom.

 

[dongrady]

fresh pics, gonna wrap around the back as well to tie in to the shock mount and my taillights will be mounted there.

looking good. straight from the fires of hell. excellent.

 

[dongrady]

another photo update. completley bare frame and more finishing of the seat area. hoping to soon have the frame ready for sandblast and paint.

 

[hardtailed77]

I'm not really feeling the seat area man. I'm not real sure what it's gonna look like when finished though, so I may be wrong about it.

 

[dongrady]

i think it'll look more balanced with the two lights mounted in the back and with it all together. had to tie everything together, doing it this way will add a lot of strenght to the shock mounts and tie the tubes in. if it doesn't work, it'll be cut out and try again...nothing is permanent, anything can change.

 

[volcomskater77]

i was thinking the same thing, but i guess your tail lights are being mounted on the seat area? should look cool. be sure to post when you get them so we can all see the mock up

 

[dongrady]

i have 2 2" round taillights, they're going on the flat pannel at the back. will post pics at each stage. thanks for input. thinking the base color for the frame and tank will match my car, maybe with some play with silver and gunmetal.

 

[volcomskater77]

your cars pretty sharp. what kind of audi is... no me hijacking. post it to the other rides thread. lol

86 coupe gt, 170hp( enough to scare the crap out of most...)

 

[volcomskater77]

ive never seen one before. kinda reminds me on an AE86 corolla. which i love lol

 

[hardtailed77]

It might work out....I was just giving my opinion. I think that the seat is going to be the main factor here. If the seat ends up covering most of the top, it will look decent. I do like how the shocks and lights will be for sure. Carry on!! haha
