Heres a sneak peak of the bags sitting in there.

I have ordered all my bends for the exhaust so it will have 3 inch single system high flow cat and high flow muffler all S/S thats my job friday.(i think)
Or assemble the crossmember.
I could get use to having fridays off thats 3 weeks in a row loving it.
I just received tommorow's cut list for the brackets to hold the upper of the air bag system.
Heres how i get the files with all clerance issues drawn in Laurie is a whizz on cad.

Well i think i pulled off the most arsiest pick up to date.
i have been chasing 4 mint hub caps after minding my own business on sunday sitting at the lights. I looked next to me and here was 4 FC rims with alloy dress rims and 4 hubcaps sitting in old mates ute so i changed lanes and did the big chase after about 10km of flagging him down he stopped.
I ask him what he was doing with them he said he had just bought them from a garage sale had been under a house for 30 years.
Long story short swapped him for 4 fc rims with good tyres and 4 shitty EH hubcaps woohoo




And i cut my exhaust flanges today ready to fit friday

It was while we were doing a dyno session on the new chip in the cruiser.

[NES304]

Diesel?

[FCRB26]

Yep  diesel twin turbo
Aftermarket chip 31/2 inch beu desert high flow exhaust absolutely flies.

[FCRB26]

All my bends showed up so tommorow is going to be a big day to try get the rear section of the exhaust done so Aaron can sheet the rear of the car in..



I removed the photo even tho i wasnt doing the wrong thing it looks bad.

Pete

[Ed]

Even the exhaust bends look trick!

[CraigFC]

Pete, you are making all of us envious but super excited as well to see the next lot of instalments. Keep up the good work especially if you can continue on the Friday FC DAY theme. You never know it might catch on across the country. :o 8) ;D

Im excited so much i dont sleep thursday nights.
And the worst part they dont start till 7am so im sitting down the road having a coffee about an hour earlly waiting for the doors to open.
Laurie braced the rear crossmember today .
we should have the back end and rear exhaust finished tommorow.
he is off to sema for 2 weeks so 2 weeks of no FC.


Pete

[CraigFC]

Bahaha, I could just see you sitting down the road waiting. As for the two weeks no FC time, I'm sure you will find something to do maybe take the boat out for a buzz around the lake or something.
