A little background. My wife was driving at NASA Nationals at Mid-Ohio in September '07, and in the main race her panhard bar mount broke, she spun, and was hit in the driver rear quarter panel. We took it to the body shop on January 14th, and told them it was no hurry.
So, good news. The car is apparently ready for paint. I'll take and post some pictures after we go check it out this afternoon. The body work guy said we should discuss how fancy we want to paint it. Fancy? Um, not. I put this in GD - I notice we don't have a broke up car specific forum. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Jason |

QUOTE He didn't weld it the last time did he No, that was done by one of Corey's (Agent 47) crew, an older gentleman that used to work on stock cars (can't think of what NASCAR was before it was NASCAR - coffee hasn't kicked in yet), and he did a quick repair at the track. It was really my fault for not checking that part of the car more frequently. It's certainly a weak point. I'm not sure yet how we'll address it once it gets to the suspension shop. I am open to input. As always, there are pictures :-) http://www.z28racergirl.com/gallery2/main....;g2_itemId=3697 http://www.z28racergirl.com/gallery2/main....;g2_itemId=3685 The Agent 47 guys put in a lot of effort to get us back on track, and we owe them big time. It wasn't their fault that we didn't properly address that part of the car and that it failed again. Jason |
