    Got a little aluminum box for my Chariot Gauge board. Its a bit big but thats cool. Gives me room to work with, and maybe something ells will be added in later on. Ill spend some time tomorrow mounting it in the box so that I can see the light and have access to the vacuum port.

      Hopefully going to paint my cage, and do a bit of welding today. I need to add some mounting point for 5 point harnesses on both sides.

        Subscribed. Nice work Jeremy. With all those suspension bits im sure the car feels great. Digging the bumpers, front spoiler, and hella lights. looks legit. I have never heard of chariot gauges. Read up on it. Looks like a super cool product. Eliminates buying a few gauges and seems to be a very good price.

            Thanks guys.
            Yesterday a few guys, mostly me hahahaha, got the cage painted and the seat belt mounting points TIGed up and then MIGed into the car.
            I still have a LOT of clean up to do, and I need to get my 5 point belt sorted out so that it fits me correctly.
            Im also looking for an affordable e30 sports seat for the passenger side if anyone has one locally?
            Then the next project is wiring in the Chariot Gauge stuff. Most likely will have to wait till next weekend as I had to help my mom out after a small surgery this weekend.
            Anyways.
            The cage before the paint went on. Painted pictures later.

                  So I spent the day cleaning the inside of the car, reinstalling the fire extinguisher, adjusting my belts and taking a few pictures. GoPro wide lens fish eye action ;)
                  The outside is still very dirty even for my car, because you are not allowed to wash your car in my mom neighborhood even though the soil around all the house is contamintaed with led and other poisons thanks to the NAVY/Army during WWII.



                  Wired the GoPro into a USB port so I dont have to change batteries all the time.

                  Next project, exhaust...

                          Not so happy with the tip on the Magnaflow muffler but it will do for now. Im going to work this out so I can clamp the resonator in place of the cat, and then clamp the cat back in when I go for smog tests.

                                I believe it's being welded up as I type this :)
                                Drive it hard. Maintain it well.
