Default Ironworks Sneek Peek From the weekends LA Roadster show.

We will have a booth this weekend at the LA roadster show. I wanted to invite anybody one here to come and hang out and give you reason to come look.

Well we had the billet cross bar almost done when the machinist had a glitch with the Program and the zigged when it should have zagged. So we have a nice gouge in the crossbar that will now make office duty as a might fine paper weight. Well we will have a new crossbar without the gouge on friday. On Monday I finally convince John that a NEW manifold from Precision MetalCraft was the last piece needed under the hood of this monster. Jeff did an amazing job on the manifold. We ordered it Monday and got it today.
How is that for speedy service.

John has not seen these pics yet. Do you think he will like it?







I think I will be fine....

Since the program crashed we did not finish the machine work on top for obvious reasons. But if you don't like the dimple dies already then, I guess were out of luck.

I think it's an awesome piece, but i think I liked the fabricated piece better. I think it fit with the rest of the structure better. I would leave the billet pices to the engine and suspension pieces and keep the tube and sheet metal for the structure. JMO. Either way it is Bad A$$! Keep up the good work.
