more progress with the pods. im gettin the hang of this bondo stuff now.

tomorrow im doing the oil pan, and ill have to rig up some kind of air filter system. im really on hault since i just found out i need a half shaft for teh tranny, which is in route, i have 2 wrong axles to return, and i have to make my own gauge pod lol! stupid company doesnt sell the premade ones any more. i just used the POS pods i got and moulded them in with fiberglass. im getting wrinkly paint to make it look a little cooler and to hide the inperfections, and then ill paint it over with the proper trim color.

i still need to do some mechanical stuff but im pretty much done with that... just the dreaded wiring left to do. i keep putting it off!!!

anyways, here are pics!

all i have to say is what the f*ck happened to your pillar pods? you should just get the cluster pods and then plus one, and put it somewhere else, likkeee, idk, maybe the top of the steering wheel column? its an idea. but what happened? it looks like it was on fire, haha.
