scratch build

[MAStuart]

Cobrakiwi Thanks I made the holes 1 1/2 It Looks like a sloppy fit but thats what the plans call for.

What material should I have made the pedals out of.

Is there any other place besides cobra restorers for the pedal springs. The price about $20 each .I needed 4 . Was feeling cheap and made a jig and made my own. they take about 2 mins each. Sometime this summer I am going to make a pattern an cast my own pedal pads. I am going to do this because I can.The two pads I have came from Cobra Restorers.



Shot of one of my pedal boxes. I still have some small parts to make.

And last a shot of my buck with some aluminum I have been shaping . It is coming along slowly.





Now I need some info. I have the material cut for the rear lower control arms .
My plans only show the control arm and the pin to conect the control arm to the upright. What steel should be used for the pin. Does anyone have a picture or a drawing that shows all the parts needed to Install the upright to the lower a arm. I think it takes a bushing And some kind of seal and I am not sure of what else. Also I think the shocks attach to these pins. I hope someone can shed a little light on this. Thats all for now . Mark

I have been slowly making some aluminum panels for my project. I also filled in so more of the buck so I could take some patterns from it.






I could still use some info that i asked about im my last couple of post concerning the rear lower control arm to upright connection. Mark

wherd the windshield come from?

[MAStuart]

Mr Bruce The guy I got the windshield was kind of hesitant about selling me a windshield. So before I post who this one came from I should clear it with him first. Next time I talk to him I will ask if it is ok to post where it came from.

Lesher motorsports would probably sell you one or the previous owner of Upstates Supercars may have one to sell. A word of warning the cost of the windshield and shipping will not be cheap. A guess would be at least $1500 on up.


By the way what windshield do you use for your coupe body. I asked earlier in this thread but the original author never replied. Mark
