looking good, I cant wait to see the car in person sometime

**JET** · 06-17-2007

Hell yeah, bring it up even if it isn't done so we can drool over it!

EvilEvo · 06-25-2007

Well its looking good to bringing it there but I really doubt it will run by then. Im talking with a few companies about full sponsorships to get me an engine, turbo, tranny, etc so if any of those pull through it may be running but I doubt even that. I am however pretty sure I will trailer it there just for fun.

I finished getting the body aligned with the chassis, putting on the fenders, bumpers, doors, etc. Along with all the brake componants, rear end, suspension, tires, etc... Its pretty much a full rolling chassis again.

I will get it tinned this week for sure. It may not be my final aluminum work but it will suffice for now to get it going. There are still alot of loose ends to tie up but many of them are not difficult or time consuming. I expect it to be fully finished minus the engine / transmission within a week or two at most. I should set up a donation box for an engine, transmission and turbo or something

Pics of the project will be coming up shortly here. It all turned out quite well.

Damn that looks good. Ill have to swing by in a day or two to take a look.

**Halon** · 06-27-2007

That corsica is a beaut!

FattyBoomBatty · 06-27-2007

Pics not working now?

**JET** · 06-27-2007

Works fine for me, lookin' good!

HiImBrian · 06-27-2007

Looks even better in person! Thanks for sharin the shop with me for a while last weekend. I can't wait to see this thing done.

EvilEvo · 06-28-2007

I tried to make it to a little outing here so I quick welded up my front tube that holds the front bumper and hood and will eventually hold the radiator, trans cooler, fuel cell, etc... So all in all it has every body panel on it now. I need to do a bunch of riveting, dzus fasteners and aluminum work but its getting very very close. Hopefully the next few weeks will get it finished up!

EvilEvo · 06-28-2007

Oh and it weighs 1180 with everything minus aluminum work, lexan windows, longblock, turbo assembly, transmission. driveshaft, fuel cell, radiator/trans cooler and two doors. Not too bad. Im still hoping to be around 2100 lbs race weight. Might need to swap out the trunk with a fabricated carbon one and maybe the doors but I think Ill make my goal or be very close to it.

Wow, that actually looks really professional.

Good job.

AJ · 06-28-2007

Look'n good man, can't wait to see it in action!

92EvilTalon · 06-28-2007

That right there is sweet. Keep up the great work.

TkrPerformance · 06-29-2007

looks great

**scheides** · 06-29-2007

Looking good!

EvilEvo · 07-01-2007

Anyone know where I can get it certified? Also, how much of the safety equipment needs to be on it? I am still missing a driveshaft tunnel, firewall (And other tin work), and a window net. Do they need this stuff to cert it or could I get it done right now?

Are those tires going to clear at speeds? Seems close where you cut out the rear door jambs.

The tires wont expand width wise... But they will get taller. The car hopefully has plenty of clearance.

I realize that and that is what I was refering to.

Looks good though. Should be fun.
