V1 Ghostknife's #383 Track SS/SC

[Mahkoi]

Good to know the state inspector is running ahead of schedule.

 

[Ghostknife]

Perfect thanks!

 

[Ghostknife]

Feels good to be assembling this thing!

 

[Ghostknife]

What else can I work on while waiting for the floor panels to get powder coated? All the stuff I’m getting done in black won’t be done until friday-ish. Lol

You can honestly install everything if you’re just waiting on the floor pan. You can do that install using supports to hold the floor up and laying on your back for the rivets. Not ideal ( and why they do this at the very beginning in the videos) but doable. You can do your radiator hoses now if you wanted

 

[Gtstorey]

The floor pan was pretty much the last thing I did.

 

[Ghostknife]

There is other things I’m having done in black as well but I’ll keep moving forward then! Thanks

 

[Ghostknife]

Rear brake and clutch lines are in, steering torqued down, pedal box is in. Tomorrow will be clutch pedal, and more steering components. I can’t put in the steering shaft yet though because I’m waiting on the firewall from powder coat.

 

[Ghostknife]

Clutch pedal is in, power steering is in, brake booster and master cylinder are in. I got side tracked and had to get the mower ready for the year and do a test cut. Will be hitting it hard again tomorrow. Will be leaving for Fiji in a week so if someone wants to swing by the house and finish it up while I'm gone......

I'll swing by with my drill and give it the Racer X treatment while you're lounging in Fiji.

I wish my wife could fly longer than four hours... I would love to visit Fiji... I'll be in Cozumel next week vacationing... A nice two hour flight from Miami.

thats gunna be the worst part of it, 27 hours of travel each way from Michigan. I’m heading to pick up the rest of my parts from powder right now. I won’t have time with my work schedule to get much more work done before I leave. When I get back though it’s game on. I’m hoping to be legal by the end of May

 

[Ghostknife]

Still thinking about getting home to work on the goblin!

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

Fiji? Have a Mai Tai and relax, the real world is still here!

 

[Ghostknife]

Yep in Fiji for a long awaited vacation! Will be busy when we get back so I’m not rushing anything. The wife and I will be closing on property when we get back, the future site of our forever home.

Been nice working diligently on the car the last few days,

-Coolant hoses pulled through the chassis.
-Floor panels installed.
-Harness about complete, just a few wires left to take care of. Thanks to @SmsDetroit for the help
-Brake lines installed.

back to work on it tomorrow!

Wiring is in the car, radiator is plumbed in, fuel tank is in and plumbed in, mirrors are in, tail lights are on.

Does anyone know what the thread and pitch the headlights are supposed to be? I want to run a tap through to clean the threads

 

[Ghostknife]

Dont mind my mess lol. I have to slide all the stuff over when I’m done so the wife can park inside at night haha

You're a brave man installing the mirrors already. I probably would have ripped mine off a dozen times by now, which is why mine are still not installed. lol
