Best 1g Ever Build Thread.... I mean blog! Mucho Photos.

[Kevin TSI]

Ok where to start. Well first off let me say I'm new to this "blog" format. Me and my buddy have started a 1g build. The car is being built as an all around fun/drag car and to be as clean as we can possibly get it. EVERY part of the work will be done by us. We do have a mods list that I will list up soon.
Car will have 8pt cage as well as full slicks on a set of slipstreams. The wheels on the car will be used on the street. As of now we have dropped roughly 550-575lbs of weight off of the car that will not be going back on. Car will be painted black. By us of course.

Here are some pics from when we got the car.

Next we went to town gutting it to see exactly what we were working with.

By by extra weight and bracing! Yes this car will have dash, center console, front seats and front carpet.

Time to pull the Engine!

N00ds!

GROSS! Can't wait to freshen this thing up. Bottom end was the nicest ive ever seen. We are going with Eagle rods and Wiseco pistons. You will see why in a few pictures.

I like that silver color. Don't see that on too many 1g's.
Nice build.
