Some more Ricky bling pics - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

RICKYRJ1 · 03-16-2009

Here are some pics of some caps I had CT Machining make for me as well as pics of the batwing I picked up. Looks like I am going to have to paint the caps black and then fill in the lettering with silver. The symbols on the caps will be done in red. The C-beam came from a salvage yard but cleaned up nice. The batwing was a PITA to do. I'm working on the rear control arms now (I think thats what they are called) the part that connects to the rear of the batwing. FYI I'm looking for the mounting hardware for the leaf spring, its next on my hit list.

Wow....

I sense some trophies this year Rick!

Wow, where are my sunglasses!!

tomtom72 · 03-16-2009

Sunglasses, maybe two pair or a welders helmet if the sun's right!

Holy smokes Rick that car is gonna blaze like a diamond no matter which angle ya look at it from. I'll bet you're gonna get more than your fair share of some trophies

That piece in the first picture that you're holding, is that what the Carter oil filter cover looks like?

Thank you Carter! No worries here, it'll be dunn when it's dunn!

It's just that the cover looks better in Rick's picture than the picture over at the netreg site. I think that rick's picture is clearer for showing the details of not just the engraving, but the quality of the machining comes thru better.
