"project gsx" update #7

[jwcardy]

Well, I've been having some issues with the brake brackets on my ksport coilovers because there aren't any. Below is a pic of what i did.

here is how the brake lines look on the stock strut assembly



here is what i did for my ksports. Just have to clean up the bracket and powdercoat it.


Also had a chance to pull some more dents with the stud welder and then spread some filler to smooth everything out. Just have to sand it all out now then it will be ready for some primer

I dont know if you knew this or not but I figured I would let you know instead of spending hours blocking down body work I can usually do a 6 hour job in 45-1hour. After about 10 minutes of the filler hardening you will notice it start to get tacky you wanna wait till its the perfect composition not so soft that it will roll when you start blocking but soft enough that you can get alot done REAL QUICK you may need to clean off your paper more often cause it clogs up fast. Once you get this down you will wonder why you wasted so much time.

hey man this build looks great.... as a former WyoTech grad i am not satisified with the amount of filler going on this car... this is just what i think im not downing the work but WyoTech teach's not to use so much filler... extra time working the dents out will look so much better... i wish i could have a shop like that to do work like you can.. curb side work is frowned apon on this side of the state...good luck with the build i will be watching it come to life

Brutal r3drum, most of all the filler that you see will and has been sanded out. My body guy also went to wyotech for hotrod/classic car restoration. All of the dents have been pulled and pounded out the correct way. The filler is just to smooth everything out.
