Sneak peak of my EK Sled.

[ekute62]

Dam only a quick sneek peek i'll have to go under cover in logan and unravel some more of the mistery for everyone.

From one logan person to anohter

[DeadSled]

Haha mate your more than welcome to come and have a look anytime.

[DeadSled]

So heres some more pics. The drivers door is just about done, just needs a tiny little bit more metal work and it'll be ready to do the bodywork on.

Another quick photo

hey one of these coupes kicking around nowra nsw doors were not extended they shortened the body .

[DeadSled]

Couple of update pics.

This is about how low i want it to sit if not lower. Definitely level though, although may have the front an inch or so higher for a taildragger look.



Door hung (On my own, bloody brother is a lazy bastard..).



And put the taillights on for a bit of a rear mock up. I also have gotten my super secret rear bumper down from the rafters and will be narrowing it and trial fitting it between wacking the rear pillar out, which i started this arvo.

Lookin real good mate.

Cheers Muza

[DeadSled]

Cheers Muza!

Few more pics..

The super secret bumper. This is before narrowing. Been wanting to do this since i found the bumper well over two years ago.



Marking out what i have to remove. In total, 300mm was taken out of the width to make it fit the EK body.



Tacked and mocked up again.



A side view.



Still have a lot of work to get this bumper to fit the cars contours better but at least its giving me an idea of what it'll look like behind the car. I think it looks cool as hell!

I reckon if you chanelled the bumper by 20 mm and added a 49 mercury rego plate chrome surround that would make it even more kool

[DeadSled]

Channelled the bumper? I know what channelling a body means but not this. Do you mean sectioning it? I've got a few different overriders that I will be trial fitting when I get to that, so it may not stay just as it is.

[Harko]

i love the idea its the best . but im still hmmming and i dont know what it needs so im keen to watch you pull it off

[DeadSled]

You love what idea Harko?

I'm going to finish the two door conversion before i play with the bumper more but may do a bit on it here and there in between. I'll have to see how EK, FB and these other overriders i have will look on it. Also have some other things i may use too.

[Harko]

Yeah the bumper , heres it shortened by the distance of the bumper bolt hole ,bout 20-25mm Id guess

[DeadSled]

Ahhh yes i see. You guys reckon it'd look better narrowed. Hm. I'll have to see how it looks when its sorta more further along with overriders and stuff on it. I never liked that EK bumpers were so narrow top to bottom.. so i'm not sure if i'll section it just yet.
