Project Fredybender V2.1 : NA with an attitude for the track by fredybender

2 minute(s) of a 234 minute read

Wll its been a while, but car is fully re-timed, starts fine, runs smooth.
New transmission mount in, Mk2 manual steering tie rod ends (longer for widened track) installed.
Bushings to offset tie-rod (rod-end to minimise bump steer, installed, and a few more odds and ends done.

Dyno time has been scheduled for next Friday night: Megajolt tuning time...

For sh!ts and giggles, I decided that the car would really look awsome with a set of sideskirts to go with the widebody kit...

I struggled with a few ideas, and looked at getting local shop brake me some 0.063" aluminum, and then ... figured out, this other solution, would actually look good:  
Had some leftover eavesthrough form the garage build, and flipped it upside down. The width, radii and overall form, matched so well with the flares, I was impressed!

So bought 2 lengths of vinyl eavesthrough (8.00$ ) sanded them a bit, primered them with plastic primer, and painted them with eurthane L97A to match the car.
Took about 2 hours each side, to match the contour, but all worth it!

The way they are held is good for now I think, one more screw at each end will solidify theses assemblies enough for track use (I hope)

On with pics!
