batbuilder's LP640 called "No Mercie"

[batbuilder]

The back part of the headrest is screwed to the seat tubing to maintain alignment for the fabrication of this upper frame. Also to be used when I fiberglass the headrest to that frame

[autopro]

Those are some sweet welds Dave

Here is a shot of the flat bar that spans between the tubing. Great idea for rigidity but hurt me a little on final fit. It really took up a lot of room. But I felt the headrest is such an important component to safety. It needs to be solid.

[batbuilder]

The attachment point to the tubing of the Fiero seat is very solid. We used solid tubing here and bent it to fit the outline of the headrest

[batbuilder]

Here is the metal framing I had welded into the headrest

Hey Usmc-butler, they are from a camaro I believe. I could check the manufacture parts number for you though. I have a guy that works for me full time. That always makes things look easier. Hey Rodrieguz, yeah it tracked very well. Just have to hook a bungee to the steering wheel. I had a sand rail that was set up this way and even had an extra hook-up to operate the brake and turn signals, Don't trust tow trucks...Lol..dave

[rodrieguz]

That tow bar is an exceptional Idea,  when you went on the 20 mile journey was the car stable throughout any turns or curves?

[usmc_butler]

You make everything look so easy ! Those vents are going to turn out great ... What struts are you using to support the door? I need to find a set soon..

Here are those charger vents that we are reshaping to fit in the opening with the border all the way around

[batbuilder]

the latching mechanism

[batbuilder]

Here is a shot of the underside of the door panel.

[batbuilder]

Here's a set of double rollers for rolling over speed bumps, curbs and flattening cats. I don't swerve...Lol

[batbuilder]

The tow bar was set up for the Chevy truck we will use for towing

[batbuilder]

We have ears on the bar so that it can't be over lifted and hit the hood.

[batbuilder]

The reciever bars are welded to the frame on the front. I wanted the tow bar because with my Testarossa replica I ran into situations where guys refused to tow it because it was too low. I had to wait for an hour for a tow bed truck to show up and even that was too high for my car. So now I will never have to wait.
