my 510 resurection project

[MCMLXXXV]

including ... a cleanup of the garage ...

[MCMLXXXV]

did the other door







test fit of the driver







fit pretty well ... a bit too low I think tho ...

[MCMLXXXV]

got the car higher to paint under the floor pans and to have the car at the right height to finish the roll cage





what's left of metalwork to do , will be easier at this height



more to come .... soon !

[MCMLXXXV]

roll cage tomorrow !!!!! damn I wont sleep !!!!! :D:D

[MCMLXXXV]

was a productive day !!!!

thx to Benoit who helped me with the roll cage !















we finish that tomorrow

[Garvice]

Looking good mate. Can I ask what hand brake mechanism you are using there.

[MCMLXXXV]

yep , b210

[MCMLXXXV]

roll cage 99% done !

here how it look's still have some welds to correct and to do , but you have an idea










next step is to fit the steering column and brake pedal before primer and paint for the interior , engine bay and under panels

[MCMLXXXV]

while I was workin on a project for one of my friends ,waiting for him I found a way to really try my tig welder





cutted out 4 inches of fuel cell , I'll make baffles out of the spare material because there wasn't any in the cell . I thought 70L was a bit too much ...Now i'll have 45L

result soon

[MCMLXXXV]

baffles are done and the cell closed

[MCMLXXXV]

so , test fit of the heater : pretty good a few custom duct to make but nothing that bad



got some cleaning done and a little more patches





cleaning the engine bay





SURPRISE !!

PRIMER









still some work to do but at least those area wont rust anymore

more to come soon

[MCMLXXXV]

some progress

made the steering column support



I removed the rear subframe to put some primer under the car



made a plate in the firewall for the pedal assembly



test fit of the pedal assembly and of the gaz pedal , still have to modify the gaz pedal a bit







patched the last part I had to do!

Did you have to cut the pedal pads of and move them over?

I know I had to do the same job on my Tilton pedal box.

Byron

[MCMLXXXV]

yes this is what I did

and you gave me the hint hehe

You should make your steering box brace now, then you can drill the holes BEFORE it gets painted. You have stiffened up the chassis nicely, might as well get rid of the steering twist also.
