We got to pool our resources and get you a subscription to Minitruckin’ magazine.

I know I have weird wheel tastes, but I would keep the stock wheels and have them powder-coated.  Maybe a warm cream color.  I have seen white LOBO wheels and thought they looked cool.  It is a mini truck, hopefully more 5x108 wheels come out.

Looks like a lot of Ferraris had 5x108 wheels…

Nice!  On my list of future rides.

Found an upholstery guy 100 miles away that was willing to glue the top on.

I got most of the trim back on today.

Cool!

If you live by a track with a teen car control clinic or something similar sign up the grandkids when the time comes.  100% worth it.

Dust, a bumper crop of dust.  Hatched 14 chickens this year and they lived in the garage till they were 5 weeks old.  Made an incredible amount of dust.

My guess is $100 parts, $1400labor for two guys 1/2 day with travel time.

I’ll be driving 300 miles for a meeting first thing Monday morning.  No fun will be had in the garage.

Glad you are posting random stuff.

Maybe PNW?  Jacksonville OR?  Bend OR?

SW… Flagstaff AZ?  St George UT (close to Death Valley)…

Lol… static ratio 12:1
Dynamic 6:1

I have a Mike Maier Panhard rod in mine.  If you do the trig with a 35” long horizontal rod with 4” of total travel (2” up/ 2” down) pretty reasonable for a road car with stiff suspension) the side to side movement is a whopping 1/16”.

Watts link is cool, but not work the trouble imho on a street car.

I’d say the most noticeable thing is the reduction of the “post burnout wigwag” for lack of better terms.  If you mash your foot into the go pedal and get sideways when you lift and the tire speed matches the road there is less of a side to side wiggle when you get traction.  It feels more secure.  No hard evidence but I do believe they make a positive performance improvement.

Exhaust routing is challenging.  Find a great exhaust shop or install downturn dumps before the axle.
