Almost done. Sort of. I built the other side it came out great. I still need to weld the other side , it is only tacked. I need to plug a few sleeves and then start the cross members to connect the top and the fuel tank mount. I hope I have enough tubing left. I have less than 1' of waste tubing. I was lucky so far. I don't think i will have enough for everything i wish to make but we will see.

Still working on the last hoop and 6 supports 2 45's on the top for side to side , 2 support under the rear hoop to frame and 2 small bits for the tank mount the last hoop will be about 8'' above the other hoop (flat part over glass).

Nice looking work!

Here is a great shot from a pro. I will get his name to give him the credit. as you can see it is labled to keep people from using it freely. I need to get a copy.

Nice shot, where did you move your intercooler to? Did you find out about UPS?

It is under the fan, it looks like to me.

I rotated the turbo to the rear and flipped the cooler to the right. So it is on the rear to the right side. Not on top now. I still need to pipe it. I will get some photos as soon as i can find a working camera.

I don't know about the cable yet. I cant find my copy of tracking info I need to call Monday.

ok updated photos









Note that the alki injector is in the corner now. Not on top of the body. I have a old fire extinguisher I am converting into a alki tank. I have cut the parts off the top to keep it from looking like it is for a fire. It is being striped of the red paint and will be hammer black. I taped into the bottom of it for the fuel line. It will sit just like the other fire extinguisher but on the passenger side. It will have Alki on it or flammable on it.

Seabee, cage looks outstanding, interested in seeing the finished alki system. Only downside is fuel tank location, but not that you have alot of options.

I will do a photos display of the Alki parts . I wish the tank was not there. but the 6 gallons up front will not cut it. I am sure this extra weight will affect the ride some how. It is more to the rear now.

I never did get photos of the completed job. but here is another photo. The is the alki tank. I call it a 15$ fire extinguisher. aluminum tanks are like 100$ so this was a easy set up. mounted like a FE but i used a hose clamp to mount it where it can not be pulled off and used some how. the handle and nose were removed. striped and repainted hammer paint. Added some stickers.

Seabee looks good, nice use of a existing tank, how long will that last ya?

I believe it will last about 15 hours to 40 hours depending how hard it is driven.

That is a project I still need to do and with all the guidence you have given, very doable. Yours looks good.

Going through buggy withdraw ..
