Bad ass, making some progress

All the electrical and controls are done inside. I need my rolling chassis back from Godspeed before I can get any more done on it.

Now I'm thinking a candy blue. Well, my wife is thinking blue. LOL I still may go green though. I'll be moving into a new shop the week of September 8th. I might just try to get it running and rolling by then and disassemble it and paint it once I move into the new shop.

You're a moron Joe. LOL

It's going to be very light hopefully.

Any ideas on which seat I should go with?

strokin'_tatsch · Jul 31, 2013

Corbeau TRS.

I'll check it out. I found this one. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/kir-41800

For fixed back I would probably pick Corbeau Forza or the Forza Sport..

The Corbeau TRS is a no I think. I can't use an sfi approved 5 point harness with it. Plus its heavy compared to aluminum.

You can. They will add a submarine slot to the reclining seats if you want them. lol.

I did some more looking at Corbeau's site. the clubman is pretty cheap and doesn't look bad either.

paint the truck blue and get the blue Forza Sport seats. Would look cool I think.

That color on that truck, if done right... I would make a mess all over myself if the paint/body work is done right.. LOL

I'll get the seat and harness ordered Monday. I'm also thinking about ordering a GT500 one piece tilt front end from US Body. What do you think?
