where's the blue antique tag.
From the outside it looks like a full auto restoration. there are eg's and ek's not even that clean.
Whats up with the brake booster on the right hand side of the car with the steering column on the left? Is it a crosbar under the dash like what old accords did because of space limitations in the engine bay?
anyways best of luck

Next year I get the blue tag (30years) They did away with the 20 year tag.
I dont know if they did a LHD conv. on these cars for space or they were RHD and that was the ez way to do it.Thanks.

Ok got the dash out and the rest of the wires under the hood. We are almost ready for the chassis shop.

There is so many things that are going on with this build I would not know were to start.I just want a car I can drive on the street with a little power. The big things that are being used is EP3 front coilovers and spindles,full brake +clutch system. We are also going to use a painless wire kit for the chassis harness.The axles are custom from Gatoraxles.com. Thats about it.

Not much going on today, cleaned the back of the car out and got the trans ready for the chassis shop. If everything goes OK it will be in the shop on Thursday.:up:

Put the engine in the back.... :up:

 

[katch24]

funny you should say that ...the last 2 days I was thinking RWD with a s2000 trans.I am going to talk to Tito on thrusday to see how much $ to do the RWD..... I think I have a sickness

Put the engine in the back.... :up:

haven't tried it myself, but supposedly the s2k trans the upper 2 bolts line up. We know the s2k crank fits a k series, so flywheels and clutches should be interchangeable. I believe the s2k pressure plate is a pull type.
If i were to do the s2k trans on a k, I would.... machine 5/8" off the bellhousing, line up what fits with a 5/8" thick adapter plate. Im sure tito will be able to do it. Is that the guy from Gato performance?

If it were to come down to it I would use the s2k motor if I had to,but a plate will work. I see were someone put a s2k on a k-trans so it should go the other way?? This car will go FWD but I have a 75 I might play with.Tito is from Tito chassis shop not sure if he ever worked with Gato.

sick project! cant wait to see it finished!

 

[katch24]

I will be using EP3 front spindles they are about the same as whats on the car already and will work for the space. Skunk2 is shipping out the coilovers for the front also.As you can see we will be starting with a new set of pedles.These pedles are reverse mount so everything is under the dash, nothing on the fire wall.
