Building a Car in AZ

[4Jenna]

Is such fun in the summer, in the garage, on the floor, under the hood.

We are over 100 every day this month, I think I lost 10 lbs this week from working on the car.

We want to see that Dripping Mess!!

Ask Jose how it feels. Even though it's not quite that hot here, he worked on his car withOUT a garage...out in the sun. When we worked on my car, there were a few times when we spent an hour or so outside getting parts off the other car, and it was BRUTAL.

Let's see what you got cookin'

Amazing...when do you think you'll be ready to run it?

Phoenix heat is killer. I had a lay over last Sunday and almost past out in the tunnel from the plane to the concourse.

All new rear suspension with stock 4 cyl springs. I have yet to adjust the ride height to my liking yet.
Once i get it on the track I'll play with ride height and shock / strut settings for optimal 60's.

Also the anti roll bar is abit stiff since it has never been driven on yet, and it kinda holds the rear up. Wolfe said after a few launches it will break itself in and no longer hold the rear up.
After I jack the car up and then set it back down, the ARB holds the rear up even higher than the pics, I have to actually push down on the trunk for it to settle.

Great car!! I admire the way you have dedicated your car/project to Jenna. I also began my project with the father in mind. He has always been my inspiration to push harder and further and so I wanted to build a car with him as a tribute.

Love your idea, great valve covers by the way!

 

[4Jenna]

That is awesome what you are doing for your father!

Good Luck!
