We’ll be running a front and a new fender unit from CSF. Should work fantastic.

The external oil cooler lines are made of a brass material and clean up very easily with solvent and abrasive pads. Just takes a lot of rubbing. However, you can avoid a lot of hand work if you get abrasive pads that attach to an electric drill

You're staying with sealed beams and sugar scoops? Interesting. I'd love to hear your thinking on this one, given all the mods in this build.

Beautiful! The best part is learning those guys are in my backyard, I grew up in Newport and am still close by.
When I get to this point I know where to go, thanks for posting everything!

Finishing up the build in Australia?

Super stoked for this thing! Turning out perfect in every way!

RDM 09-28-2018 11:49 AM

Finally got the sticky tires on.

gomezoneill 09-28-2018 12:01 PM

What's with the photos they're excellent but upside down and sideway's ? Beautiful job.

The normally overlooked bits that are being polished and obsessed over, along with this green...will dramatically set this build apart!
