Getrdone's GETR181
Well, the twins have grown enough to become their own. It has become confusing to post the pedals are done and turn around and ask for pedal ideas for the other. So here is my thing! Thanks all for the help getting to today.
Once Denny starts his thread I'll move some recap pics to his thread as he is pretty much building his own car lately.
The concept:

Re: Getrdone's GETR181
Will the twins have license plates? Or just green stickered for Kalifornia?

Re: Getrdone's GETR181
To answer a couple of questions, these both should have plates. Provided the DMV deal works out as planned, Both cars were non-opped back in the 90's. So I still need to talk to them to see what we need to do to get them up to current. As far as breaking up, well I don't think that's the case just yet. Maybe some counseling is in order but I am willing to work at it Clint is right though. My car was the first one so there have been some changes made to his. Also, he will most likely wind up with different parts such as pedals and seats so mounting will be changed. They will most likely look very similar in the end. Time is the real issue now as my son plays soccer and his plays football, so working time is limited to 1 day a week.

Re: Getrdone's GETR181
It just simply too confusing for me to even post since chronologically they don't make cense. I have finally got mine to a point that I don't feel impossibly behind. I am hoping it will be a roller soon if some barter work pans out.
I had thought Denny would want to start his own thread since he has been working so hard on it and it is getting to the point of more assembly than fabrication. I am hoping his be running shortly.

All kidding aside...both cars are truly bad ass, but I am glad you are separating them as it has been hard to follow along. at times.
