Re: Beater Eagle Summit

Ok it is freaking freezing out...

Haven't done much because I am still at a stand still with the brakes...

I have collected some very important parts though

I have my Honda radiator 2" duel core


Mirage turbo axles + half shaft

all motor mounts needed plus some poly inserts in a couple of them



Plus I have my 4g csm knuckles I can play around with

Are these 4 X 100? I really wish they went with a standard 4 lug pattern...




So I am getting a good collection of what I need...

I am finding out that converting the rear from a 4 lug Drum to 5 lug disk is tricker (and more expensive!) then I thought and I am tempted just to do the AWD rear frame swap just to get it over with. I do have all of those parts together so the only thing that is stopping me is a warm garage Would it be cheaper to do the swap?

Anyone want to donate their garage to a poor CSM person

I wish the car was moving right now but maybe I will just have to piece something together to get it to move. I don't know how though...
I am going to try to keep this project under $1000 anyway I can! so any helpful, cheap advice, (also accepting donations) would be greatly appreciated!
