V1 ZOOM ZOOM 2009 SS T/C Extended City Open Frame

Beautiful, they did a great job packing it up and it looks like a DF assisted in a few painful areas (wiring, hoses, etc.) - worth the wait!

In the build guides, there's a few steps where they want you to drill the frame with a self tapping screw - usually this can be mitigated with a coated clamp which may save some scratches and curse words along the way.

Can't wait for mine, I can almost see it off in the distance of that truck.

Dang! You were anxious to get going! You did not even unpack all the parts from the frame before installing the floor pan!!!!
I like your work style.

Today was a pretty productive day for a Friday May 8 , Was able to get brake lines run and electronic steering installed, brake booster, gas-brake-clutch pedals, speedo gauge, key switch, and a few other odds and ends.

I would like to praise DF GOBLIN for there outstanding workmanship to there products this thing isn’t just tossed together, The perfect detail to every piece how it all comes together is so beautiful . The outstanding welds that are perfectly done.

Look at the radiator mount brackets that are so evenly side to side layer down and the way the power coat just flows over it makes it a work of art from one end to the other !!!

You should consider cutting off the loop on your ignition. I don't know that it's 100% necessary to do, but a bunch of people have done it, including me last night.

Just cut at the yellow lines:

I thought about that but wasn’t sure. Now that you suggested it I will definitely be doing it.

 

[Zoom Zoom]

All DONE. —- Looks better, Thanks for suggesting I just wasn’t sure if they was going to reuse further down the build somehow

 

[Ark :D]

Looks good. I've thought about masking and painting mine, along with the brake fluid reservoir, but I'm probably going to let them be, since they're be under the hood most of the time.

 

[Ark :D]

I couldn't resist masking and painting my coolant reservoir though. It was some grody-looking semi-green color. Not anymore.

I like your fill line window, LOOKS GOOD

Looks great! I did something similar, but my fill line window is bigger because I'm old.
