  • Latest mods to the Lil' Bastard

    Been a while since I've had the time and money to work on/race the festy but now I'm back in full force. Got plexi in the side and rear window a new Sparco Sprint 5 seat (never have I felt so planted in, its like I'm a part of the car) and a few pics of my bolt in harness
    bar in progress (plan to finish the mock up on Thurs and fully welded on Sat).



    Rear Plexi window.





    Passenger and Driver's side Plexi windows.



    B-Pillar Harness bar mount (uses the lower seat belt mounting hole up top and a pair of
    grade 8 bolts with some big fender washers behind them on the bottom).





    Main bar running across behind the seat. Also a look at the back of the Sparco.



    Plate on the rear shock tower. A tube will run from the main bar in the middle of each seat
    and back here (some extra strength for the bar and a big boost in rigidity from the bracing).



    THIS IS SPARCO...

    what did you use in the back to cover the rear quarters, by the seat belts and stuff?

      Big sheets of heavy duty black plastic. They used to have them on the trucks between
      pallets when I worked for Dominoes... wish i could get some more.
