EXHAUST PIPEs - When
lower rockerpanel was new fabricated
also portholes for the exhaustpipe was welded in. Exhaustpipe
runs trough the rockers from behind ( aside
frame ), and into the curbed end of lakepipe, just so the pipe
seem to
be an
inner part of lakepipe,and will make illusion of functional
lakepipes,
without heated pipe along side of rocker

SUNVISOR
SUPPORT
After
seen the normal
problems with big sunvisors, I´d make a new
styled fixing. Normal its a
support
leaning on the middle post of splitted windows,
who after a while makes
cracks, and
damages the front windows.
Here i gonna make
a center support on roofsection above
the window, bolted through the roof. |
