I thought it to be a type in the title of his ad but he repeats it in the description.  Either way, nice car.  I love the color scheme.  I think Zella needs a partner.  If I only had the space…

Yes, I think I’ll be needing one as well.

Not sure on the year either?  Didn’t they started producing the T-series in 36 as the TAs?

Got that right.  I can’t wait for nice weather.

Thank you!  If you find all that time, I’ll take some!  🙂

Thank you both!  The weather was not cooperative this week or else I would have taken Zella for a spin.

I was, on the other hand, able to get a bunch of other work finished in the garage all while having my 8-month old job boss looking on.

No I never did get around to getting it copied.  I need to though.

Thanks, I finally got the intake welded up.  Needs polished but it fits okay.  By the time I got it finished I started getting the hang of TIG welding again.  It’ll do for now but I’m going to build another one that extends down into the passenger side of the fake gas tank.  On…[Read more]

Haha those who are close to me know I’d rather take the hard road and build it myself than buying something off the shelf.  Something I’ve inherited from both sides of my family, no doubt.  It doesn’t hurt that I’ve been blessed with a great career that allows me to enjoy multiple hobbies.

The stainless was actually left over from a previous project that I finished.  I bought a used 400 gallon stainless sprayer tank off a farmer and built a s…[Read more]

Yep that would definitely work!  I’ve spent enough time fitting up my pieces, I’m not turning back now.  😉

One more piece to cut tonight on the band-saw and I’ll be ready for tacking for fitment then weld it solid.  Overkill, but a one-off piece of overkill.

It may not happen this year, but when I replace the wiring harness most of the wi…[Read more]

I cut some pie cuts out of some 2″ schedule 10 stainless pipe so they’re 15 degrees total for each piece.  This requires 6 pieces per 90* total angle.  I laid it out today and I can get it to fit but the engine lid is just barely making contact with it where it comes off the carb so I’m going to be doing some 20 and 30 degree pie cuts to try to li…[Read more]

I turned 29 today, I’m still a youngster 😉

Nice pictures he took for you.  I really like your Lafer, it’s more streamlined than my BCW.

Me too, I’ve never heard of a haka before today.

I do not have the tin you are referring to.  What you see is what I have.

If you refer to the pics on the first page you’ll see that the previous “filter” was connected to the carb with the silver heater hose as you described.  You’re right, it worked and it sure as heck wasn’t elegant.  I’m going to attempt an elegant approach here.  If I nee…[Read more]

Zella’s new shoes came in, along with with some other goodies.

Nankang CX668 165/80R15.  If my plans work out tomorrow, I’ll be stopping by the shop to mount and balance them.

Here’s a pod filter I bought along with a 2″ silicone 90* elbow and a 2″ polished stainless 45* sanitary elbow to try to get the filter tucked horizontally up against…[Read more]
