V1 Carl's Track Goblin - 05 SS SC donor, Chassis # 39

[Waterdriver]

Had some arts and crafts time over the weekend and today.
Utilizing the printed body mounts, recreated the hood and nose side panels.

Still was not liking the tall side profile before the dash.
So, attempted lowering it today and incorporating a wind deflector into the body instead of adding a bolt on polycarbonite one later.

Just need to finish the drivers side and then can take it for a test drive.

Hey, where did the air splitter and canard dive planes go??? That is what I liked the most from your last revision of the bodywork arts and crafts project.

Oh, arts and crafts time isn't over. I still have more hot glue sticks and cardboard! Those pieces will be coming back.

Been able to do a little work towards getting street legal. Purchased some inexpensive CBR600 mirrors.
Then designed and printed some mounting adapters for the mirrors.
Instead of using the front turn signal wiring,
I wanted the lights in the mirrors to be running lights and turn signals, so I tapped into the rear turn signal wiring. Pretty simple and clean since that wiring originates from the footwell BCM.

On another note, I ran across this 3 wheeler the other day. Vanderhall. Kind of cool from side or back. But the front, eh.

Yeah, eh! There is one around us. A guy at a car show had to show me of a picture of one he ran across. That was my thought, eh.

Need a tweed hat and pipe to drive one of those. Not high on performance.

The grill needs four interlocking rings cause the it looks like it came off an Audi.

 

[Waterdriver]

I keep thinking, it reminds me of something I've seen before. Lol

 

[Waterdriver]

Hmm, I wonder?

 

[Ross]

Well that is going big! I like it.
Curious, how is the air that enters your front radiator suppose to get out?
Out the bottom, or thru the cabin?
I was thinking of closing off the bottom, and letting the air out the sides, by the front suspension.

Vented out through suspension arms. Hidden by the front tire in the pic.

Headlight brackets bent up.
Getting closer for the street!

DIY fabrication is what building a Goblin is all about. Great work with the vise and persuader, they both look identical!

 

[Waterdriver]

Well, to honest that's the first and third one I built.
I was going to design and 3d print some, but I just dont think it be entirely strong enough without making it look bulky.

Been working on my digital dash mount utilizing a Samsung tablet and think I have something I like finally. I had drawn it up a month ago, went to print it and my printer died. Gotta give credit to Walmart and their warranty. Whole process took a month but received a full credit allowing the purchase of a new printer and some upgrade parts for it.

This looks Awesome ! What type/size samsung tablet are you using ? Is the tablet fast/responsive ? My old "Tab A" is sorta slow with Racecapture...Can you share the STL file on here ? I'm running race capture and want to ditch the button panels I printed out and looking to do something similar for a dash.

The tablet I'm using is the new Samsung Tab A 8in. Using just a cheap OBD2 bluetooth adapter now, which seems fairly fast. An OBD2 to USB adapter is supposed to be the fastest connection which will work for Torque Pro. Not sure with Racecapture.
I'll get you the file sometime tonight after work.

Attached are the 3 files for the Tablet Dash.

Dash: might need to enlarge the charge port window depending on your cord.

Buttons: Print 3 qty.

Progress has been really slow recently but one step closer to registering. Headlights and its leads done. Nose template modified.

Do you mind posting those STL files again? They seem to be missing from the post above. I would gladly pay you for them as well. That is a very nice looking enclosure.
