New 4G63 and a Roll Cage

[secongendsm]

We spent the last two weeks trying to get the new motor swapped in after my little mishap at the track. Last Saturday we got her running again.

After putting a mile on her we needed to get the windshield out for the roll cage to be installed. That is where Harbor Freight comes in. $17 and 15 minutes the windshield was out.

Now we had to get the carpet out and the new race seat from Summit installed.

I call these the cheap seats, because they are!

After all this we loaded her up on the trailer and dropped her off at Ben Hanks Racing for them to install the roll cage. I'm hoping to have her back in a week or so because she has a date with Michael Chandler Photography on the 12th of June.

Sure, I just need to grab the paperwork. Give me a day or two.

Seems like you need a few more gauges, love the car though been following you on fb. Was it hard to get the seats mounted in the car?

Thanks

Seat brackets are just modified stock brackets, some cutting and welding was involved.

"What was I thinking?" I'm still wondering the same thing after ten years of this!.... Nice to see you getting a cage.

I think DSM's will run through our blood forever!

Nice blog, 10k is a reasonable budget to go with to get the car in the tens...those seats look scary!!
