RBS in-Limbo (extreme makeover) (Page 37/158)

Simply amazing! Usually the artists renderings are over exaggerated and out of proportion to make it look more exotic, but in this case, I think they might be a little to conservative for end result! Truly an exotic in the making.

It looks like you have removed all the areas that give the panel its fixed mounting points, so securing the panels will be a bit tricky especially if you make your own brackets to hold them in place you will need to find a way to integrate the brackets. Does Mr. Wizard Clynt have a general idea on how he is going to mount everything.

Car is looking amazing, and will be awesome to see once its finished. Kinda sucks that your car will miss the big All Pontiac show next weekend. I am not going to put my car in either, unless I somehow find a time machine to go back and get the engine worked on. I hope you do still at least come out to visit a lot of the guys are asking where you have been. Yes you are missed.

P.S. we also have the club meeting on Saturday. You and Clynt should come out in his chopper.




No concern, Mr. Wizard Clynt and I talked about that the other day and yes he's going to weld brackets front and back to support rockers.

We'll be at meeting see you there !!!

Thank you Mr. Reallybig guy,

I updated sketches and decided on color scheme, Madcurl red with semi gloss black side and back end...



The back view is exaggerated a bit

That's to funny


More inspirations from concept lambo and MadArch wide body rockers...



The old RBS rockers are to boxy squareish looking for the new design, side of rockers are going to be angled something like MadArch



Taped new lines to cut off







All boxy square cut out



Clynt holding new angled template



More tomorrow ,
