Can't wait to see it completed.

We pretty much went to a video only format to better document, so there aren't many photos to share. So I'll start where I left off in 2016...

We slacked off for a year and finally got motivated to figure out how to engineer a functioning tailgate using hood hinges from a 90's Camaro.

Not too long after, we learned of the first annual 2017 Detroit Gambler 500 and decided the Weirdmobile was going to be our vehicle of choice!

We had a huge to-do list to get the car reliable and ready for a long trip, but instead we decided it would be more fun to lift it and put on truck tires :D

Still ignoring our to-do list, we though it needed a custom roof rack for extra storage... so we got some scrap metal and welded away!
https://youtu.be/hS8D29jdd_g

With 1 week to go before the Gambler 500 and nothing crossed off of our to-do list, we decided to get to work. First thing to do is figure out why the car won't start :lol: :?
