Turpid Porpoise's Track Toy Build

[turpid porpoise]

Noooo! I mean congrats but don't sell the car. Any parts you are looking to sell?

Ask and you shall receive. I made the executive decision to keep the car and it heads to GT Peace Automotive on March 29 for ride height adjustment, corner balancing, suspension torqueing and they will be drilling to mount my last few harness eye bolts so I can finally get this thing on the track.

I just dropped the 15s off to get some new meat and I finally got the hood to latch properly so next up is cutting for the windshield washer nozzles and then I'll wash the car and take some proper pictures.

Still need to paint the roll bar tho...

I have the same bar waiting to go in. The reason it's still waiting is that I was going to paint it before it went in. Why did you decide to paint after the fact? Trying to figure out what to do.

Maaaaaan I can't wait to see this one finished. Such a cool build so far.

I didn't want any of the paint to lose adhesion during the welding process and also I was being impatient. I'm just going to use roll on chassis paint, I don't really care if I get brush strokes and roller marks on the bar.
