Best wishes to all over the holidays.Laugh


The past few weeks have been pretty hectic.Yell I made a lot of phone calls and one trip for parts. I got some miscellaneous parts, the telescopic/tilt steering and was given a front and rear set of rim and tires. I also received some ordered parts for the suspension.


Here we have the front right assembly. I added the hub and bearing assembly, rotor, caliper, brake pads and hooked up the brake line. Everything went together with no problems.Smile

Now for the rear. The hub and bearing assembly, emergency brake assembly, rotor, rear link rod, emergency brake bracket, caliper, brake pads, hub spacer and hooked up the brake line. Again all went together with no problems.Smile

Well, here we have it, the car is now sitting on all four tires. It really starting to look like a car. The only thing I need now is to take some time and clean up a little.SurprisedSmile

The next step is to install the telescopic/tilt steering. The electrical is still under research and I'm getting really close to figuring out what I have to do. This is one area that I certainly do not want to rush in.Confused

I'm really having lots of fun with this build. Things have been going really good and I'm really surprised on how all the parts have been installed with no problems. I still have a long way to go but the way things are going, I might just be able to have this car on the road this summer.Laugh


Till next time.
