Re: Sonoma GT 0334 - Build Pics
I wish i was able to do all of this amazing fab work. I am just the guy with the idea's and how to package it.
I've got a couple more awesome idea's for the fuel & brake lines that are going to be way cool.

V6 stuff is slow as hell..
i really think it's different to make a twin turbo V6..to bad there isn't as much aftermarket support on those v6's compared to v8's...so you gotta pay, or do alot of work yourselve.
:tup: to marty and his slow ass v6

12-11-05 Update.
Working on a new fuel cell.
Looks like we are going to use the external pumps that I have.
One on each side of the tank meeting in the middle at a "Y" block.
The tank will sit between the new frame rails which is two inches narrower then the old tank ;-(
In order to get a little more fuel capacity the tank is built around a frame support.
Here is what the tank looks like removed from the truck
I want to thank Scott Husner for the Box.
He shipped me the first prototype Sonoma GT cladding in it.
New Access cover to the Battery
The New Billet Specialties Battery Tray mounted in the bed.
The Frame had to be modified for the Shock Wave Air Bag.
Here is a side view of the bed side glove box.
Here is the prototype GT Cladding the Scott Husner is now Offering - Nice Piece.
The Rear End came apart waiting for the arrival of the new Rear Tires & Wheels.
That's it for this week. I hope to have the wheels by the weekend. If not not a big deal there is still plent that needs to be done.

Good Morning All,
Looks like Dave finished the bed and it turned out exactly as i expexted.
Just a quick shot of the underside view. Check out all the bracing
Here is the new revised fuel system - it will look so much cleaner
The pumps will be mounted on the chassis cross brace. It should be nice and safe in this location
here is a little better view
that's it for this week.

Re: Sonoma GT 0334 - Build Pics
sweet!! I'm sure you know this Marty, but make sure they install the pump on rubber anti vibration mounts or they will sound like mine does....loud!!.... I got in a hurry and didn't use them but I kinda like how it sounds to tell you the truth.......must have grown on me....
edit: Also, some people think twice before racing me when they hear my loud fuel pump...

Today Christmas came early.
I want to thank Kevin at Billet Specialties for getting my wheels built and delivered on the exact day he promised.
They have been yet another awesome company to work with.
I also need to thank Jack at Rad Rides for ordering these wheels for me. He is also another stand up guy.
Well, here they are from start to finish.
Centers getting ready for there new home
Heating up the hoop
Fitting the center
Checking the run out
Center getting welded
Here are the Guy's at Just Tires doing there best to get the tire mounted
The tire is mounted
I'll get some more detailed pics tommorow of the wheels.
