#4 BENJAMIN KUNK - Coupes still FAIL!

Not a whole lot to add. The build is still going slow as ever. Best things in life take time :D Here is a couple snaps.

Here is a stack of new photos showing the progress on the X83 project. I'm so stoked, this car is going to dominate..

And as always please,

It's been super slow going, but the things that are happening are coming out better then I had imagined. I'm still waiting on tons of parts. Coils, Aero, Sub frame and Diff bushings, Knuckles, Tension Rods. And tons more to order too!

Check out the preliminary cage fitment:

Oh boy it was a long weekend. Got the firewall tacked into place. Rear hoop bent and tacked, and downward supports bent and fitted. Still have a rear jacking point, fuel cell mount, and bash bar to make... oh yeah and a whole cage!

I'll let the pictures speak for them selves.

Finally done cutting things out for the most part. Next updates will have cool things being put in!

Car went to Clayton @ Beauxner Fab to have the cage done and rear end tubed. Clayton is a kick ass dude, very detail oriented and quite the perfectionist. I highly recommend him for any fabrication you need.

We've been cutting and stripping for 4 days. I think the car has shed over 500lbs. No door glass or inner skin, ditched the stock tank in favor of a fuel cell and tubing the rear, finding tar under tar under sheets of metal with more tar under it. Car is starting to look like a dune buggy with the ass cut out it's raised up 6" or more lol.

Clayton doing some final trimming on the rear:

All cleaned up and ready for frame rail caps, tubing and rear firewall to begin. Notice the sheet metal on the right hasn't been removed yet you can see the tar thats found under it on the left side. Don't have the picture but it's all cleaned up now.

Frame rail caps done. Will make a great place to attach the rear frame and bash bars:

Stay tuned, Working on it more tonight. Sorry for using my cell phone to snag the pictures.

Selling the TE-37's to make a little cash to put towards other things the car needs.

18x9.5-0

$2000 + shipping w/o tires or hit me up for a price with tires.

Here is the current state of the S13. It will be going to Beauxner Fab to have the front end tubed shortly. I also have a couple new sponsors that I will be announcing in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!!

Including the wreck that punched a hole in the inter cooler costing me any chance at a good finish.

Just happened to find this a little late so I figured I would share:

I think what Nate Hamilton is doing with Corey Denomy Films is amazing and inspiring. I think everyone should take the time to watch our fellow XDC driver's video and share it on facebook or your blog. Hopefully we will be able to make some inspiring videos of our own in the future.
