haha yeah thats who i share a shop with. Brandons car is pretty amazing, and its an honor to even share a space with someone as detail orriented.

More of the same prep work going on. It doesnt look like much but theres a ton of time spent in the interior of this car getting it completely empty. Next is getting the glass out of the car as well as the seat mounts. I will be building custom seat mounts to lower the Recaro pole positions a bit to hopefully keep my head further from the cage.



and the really sloppy quick side rendering i shared on fb. Lots of this will change, and obivously there arent any details added but this is a very rough idea of what im shooting for.

[J-specCb4]

small visual update for a very large big picture update that is coming very soon. the car is now at the shop where the cage is being built. i have some really really fun stuff going into the cage. cant wait to update this as i go back and visit during the process. its supposed to be about a month before i get the car back and can start interior/engine bay work.

Love the updates. Are you planning on running any kind of rear diffuser or just a half cut bumper?

[J-specCb4]

jeeeez. this cage is taking forever. going by the shop to shoot some progress photos next week though. super stoked on all the stuff i decided on. its going to be very elaborate.

It'll all be worth it, I'm sure! Any stitch/seam welding going on while everything is gutted?

[J-specCb4]

yeah the whole chassis is being stitch welded as well.

This is great i cant wait to see more of the progress! Great work man props for reviving the old girl. I myself, still have my "first love" in my cb coupe. Its been sitting for about 3 years now because i decided to keep it and do something similiar to you, build a drivable racecar Someday ill be able to make this dream come true, in the meantime i think ill just drool over yours.. and take notes

That's going to be one solid build... literally.

[jdm_inspired]

Wow. Simply inspiring.

[Mike1357]

Double stitch welding too? Nice. Are you going to put expanding foam in the chassis rails as well? Spoon does something similar.

I was just reading about that. It's some type of urethane based expanding foam out that is supposed to really stiffen the chassis.

SKUNK2 did this a while back on one of there race cars, it was featured in super street

this white VC for your h22 is a great idea !
