Phase 6 body and paint

After finishing the Aluminium Roll cage, Bumpers and suspension, we bring her back to the body shop. started first with the fenders, we put the tires on to measure the width fit the tires just right. then the preparation for the paint, we choose a aluminium silver to match all the aluminium we put in it.

PHASE 5

It's been a while since my last post. but the project stills runing, well, I mean walking since it been a little slow, has we are trying new way of doing things. Like the Aluminiun ROLL CAGE, BUMPERS, AND SEATS. Yeap! All that made of Aluminium.

After installing the body to the Denali Frame, the adaptations to fit all the components to the blazer wasn't easy. a lot of things where modified, THE GAS TANK AND PUMP, THE DASH, STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, THE TRANSFER CASE, RADIATORS, AIR FILTER, BATERY BASE, AND A LOT MORE.

Making the Aluminium roll cage was a real chellenge too, since it was the first time for Victor Martinez to do a job like this

in the picture above this one you can see the aluminium weldig, it takes 4 to 5 times to weld aluminium insted of steel.

The skidplate was made of a 1/4 thick aluminium sheet, and computer engraved.

The bumper should hold 4 Rally 4000 of 100W (I show them on the next post)

The seats were made of an aluminium frame as well, reaching an aprox. 5 kilos(11pounds) total weight each.

4 2.5 remote reservoir FOX SHOX will be installed, right now we just installed the rears, as the front suspension will be a little more complicated as I like hahaha.
