An Exotic Adventure,..the Rebirth of Choptop #4 ! (Page 47/106)

Testing out some visuals.

Spoilerless ?







Bowtie wing, which would eventually be morphed into this and obvioiusly pushed back further ?







Low rise wing ?





pulled out my 5 " wing stands to check out the raised look, but ran into some complications.





This last screw was all rusty and would just spin (stripped) but would also hold tight. Got to figure out a way to get this sucker out without doing further damage ?



The other spoiler did not have the screw sleeves needed to attach.

#4 getting closer and closer to getting it's new heart !



In the meantime a little more mocking up.







The idea would be to inset one or both of the badges, fill them in with resin and backlight them.

I'd put the small one where the big badge is... and finish it the way you want. Not overdoing it is key, so a small accent piece would work very well.

That's just me, though - you can do whatever you want.

Picked up an engine stand today from a fellow CFF member (thanks Blacktree) for my 3800 sc engine.



Mike also stuck around to help me with a wiring issue. We had to partially pull out the dash to get some wiring that had inadvertently been tucked away during a past dash removal.

Next week !

Meanwhile,......today my 3800sc engine and tranny arrived !!



Big thanks to Bill (Hop) who hauled it down from Jacksonville for me.



thanks also to Mike (Blacktree) for the loan of his engine hoist and engine stand as well as helping to unload things.



Anybody looking for a fiero ?

An 86se with bad engine was also part of the deal, but i need to finish the choptop before starting another project.
