Between X71, F-DAT, and LMP360 the Midwest is really stepping our game up for bad ideas. We have created a veritable Bermuda triangle of Bad Decisions..
Also that cozy coupe looks amazing.
I'm glad I moved, I was damn near dead-center in the middle of that. Oh, who am I kidding - I'd gladly help out all you guys!
One word:
Bonkers!
[Doc Holliday: Proceed, sir]

Ironically enough, CB is within the boundary of the Triangle as well...

I’m in need of a header panel....
I will send you an email tonight to work on details, but Bob is heading south in a few weeks and Pete Gossett says he is willing to assist in a parts relay to you.
In reply to gumby (Forum Supporter) :
Hey! Thanks. Just replied... we will definitely get together. Might have to make a road trip to indy before the snow flies!
Re-assume the position!
Header panel removed for 03Panther in exchange for some bits and bobbles that will become important later in the build
Bumper cover set aside. Starting a pile for a potential second deal at a later date when transporting bulky items is simpler.
If anyone is interested in smaller, shippable items(tail lights, window motors, wiper transmission, mirrors, etc), let me know!
Was wondering when I'd see a build thread pop up. Wish I was closer to help. But it is in fact a 2.5 day cannonball each direction.
I guess the pressure is on for me to get back to challenge next year. Gotta see this.
I can't wait until the unnatural melding of the two.
About how many miles around the triangle ?
Maybe you can have a race , like Monte Carlo !
where is Grand tour when you need them ?

Can I buy a Tshirt ?
In reply to californiamilleghia :
Why do you want to show Bob up with a race? Cause you know he'll have a Korean car.
In reply to Stampie (FS) :
No I won't. I'm on team crazy people here.

nothing wrong with Korean cars , next best thing to Yugos !
Don't forget to ebay the rear door handle rods
When you start working on the tube-chassis, can you please detail your thought-process and technique? I've never done a roll cage and I'm very interested in how a pro would approach a job like this.
Nice to see "my" header panel sittin' all pretty on the bench! And Looking forward to seeing the upcoming chassis mods.
I am also interested in a left taillight, if it can still make the first trip. And the cup holder assembly. Or next order, is fine too.

Scott, I think this thread contains all of the cage related info you’d ever want to read.
Worked on stripping out the MGM today. Photo dump documentation of things
The spoils of labor
I like that you have a tiny helicopter drone on your work bench. For any drone-related tasks you might require.
That and the off-brand Playboy bunny stickers. Good haul there.
The chopper, the bunny stickers, and the DVD were all kinda wtf finds in this car. Maybe if the DVD will play we can learn whether that says Plus Love, or Plug Love
At least we know why there is a change shortage....
edit, the new blower motor found in the back seat isn't even for a MGM
Might wanna rethink watching that if it says plug love?
In reply to Patrick (Forum Supporter) :
I need to find a place for the Cracker Jack sticker. Brad wants to run with the big dogs.
Those bunny stickers remind me of the ones kids would put on their skin before going into the tanning bed way back in the 80's.
In reply to Pete Gossett (Forum Supporter) :
Kids? A lot of the strippers I knew did that! "Course they were kids in many ways, now that ya mention it!
I'd be afraid that Angry made that DVD.
I got Gumby’s bits orders finally, and my mgm parts arrived this morning. Super great delivery guy, and Gumby has been fantastic to deal with. Can’t thank y’all enough!
looking fwd to more of these guys build.
