You are going to need a lot more duct tape for that to hold together.

Tee's into the subframe connector.

Look at this picture, you can see where the bar connects.

Bring it. I need some shit tacked together so it quits falling apart as I work on other stuff. Duct tape ain't cutting it.

That is only because you are clearly not using enough...

More pipes in, not too much more duct tape. Getting a couple bends made tomorrow, then maybe get at tack welding some stuff in.

looks uncomfortable to get in and out of. And, it's not even done.

[DaveH]

Yep, it gets worse as I add the funnycar cage. I plan on adding removable joints in my hips and knees to make it easier to get in and out. :icon_albino:

Hell, at your age I figured you already had more bolt-on parts than your car does.

[DaveH]

No bolt ons... yet.

Made more progress, pulled the oem steering column out and getting ready for an aftermarket column with removable steering wheel. Practiced a bit with the tig and got one side tacked in, a couple of my tack welds don't even look like complete poo. Got part of the funny car cage fitted.

If you can tack it you can weld it. Fire that welder up and finish it!
Good move with the removable wheel, its going to help you shoehorn in a lot. If you dont want your wheel to wobble get a MW hub.

[DaveH]

Eh, I'll let someone that knows what they are doing finish all the welding. I practiced enough that I feel ok tacking things together but thats it. I'd have to practice a lot more before I felt comfortable doing the welding.

The hub I got is competition engineering, hopefully it's decent.

That one is decent not too wobbly. The loose ones are annoying as hell.

[DaveH]

Little more progress, got as far as I can with the material I got. Everything is tacked in, I'm starting to feel sorta comfortable tack welding with the tig. Note to self, don't forget to turn the gas on. lol
