This weekend I have completed the modification of the ASS. "I love big butts" so I wanted to make one reeeal fat one.
The SEBRING exhaust didn't fit perfectly so I had to re-weld the exits. I also changed to pipes to 2,5".  Made some half moons in the blade  So after a LOT of meaturements, grinding, calculation and brainstorming things looked like this. The pipes nicely dives into the rear bumper, just the way I wanted.  One BAD ass!    I have changed the shape of the bumper blade, lowered it, raised the exhaust exits, shorten the bumper brackets and shorten the pipes.

I am still modifying my front bumper and brackets. Here's a little "sneak" of what's goin' on.
  Bumper is now in the perfect height and distance from the front. I have also modified the fog lamps (that I used on my old Galf Cab project) so they don't need a foot or bracket. I also went and blasted/primed some parts last night.  Just now I am putting all the new air parts together. This is what you need for controlling one corner of the car. In other words you need 4 of this rig to controll all corners.  And some more "sneaking"  Started the upgrade of the air ride today. This should give the system enough air flow. Upgrading from 1/4" to 3/8".    Since the 5 gallon tank is mounted behind the gas tank I had to modify the tanks foot. It looked like this before I started cuting it:  And after some welding it looked like this:   Will continue the work with the upgrade tomorrow.

Today I started with the MDF floor which will support all the air management parts.
Started up making a frame under the gas tank. All the other panels will be "connected" to this frame and in that way locked to the body of the car.  Then I made two more panels, one for the air parts and one for the audio amp.  This is the layout, so far. I think there will be some small changes on the location of the air parts. Now I'm going to make some neat panels which makes it possible to hide cables, air lines etc. Tomorrow I am also going to make the box for my subwoofer(s), so I can get ride of the MDF-board inside my garage. Stay tuned!

Another sunny day in Oslo.
A day spent in/outside the garage Starting to look like a car again. New seats and panels in dark red. Looks great againts the flat savannah beige paint  Box for the subwoofers under construction. 2 x RF 10" are going inside this box.  Almost done. The inner walls between the woofers are missing in this picture. Each woofer have its own encloser.  Finito Haven't decided what material I'm gonna use on the box. I want it to look original and not look like a sub. So if someone got some pics of a original "plate" behind the rear seat, please post it her.

Yes it is! It's called "Parcel Shelf" and made by Kamei. They are made in red, black and white. It's a 60's product as far as I know. But the '67 one is different, it has a knob that matches the '67 dashboard:

More done tonight, this is going the right way so far
Almost finished "all" the electrical stuff in the car. Fuse panel, lights etc. I also gave the tank for the air ride a "makeover". So after a couple of hours, it looked like this:

I made a small board under the tank to easy the installation into the car.
 Then I don't have to f**k around under the tank to take it in and out. The bolts are VERY tight under it. Installed I also installed the modules for air management and remote controll (pop doors) Not much space, but enough My remote got 3 channels, so I'm going to use the 3. channel for slamming my ride using the remote. The plan for tomorrow is to blast my bumper blades...

The air management is now functional
Tthe 9-switch box. Enables all kind of control. One corner, one side, both front, both rear and all corners. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQNx...feature=channel I can also slam and raise using the remote for the shaved doors. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2WN...feature=channel
