The 93 GM "Tank of Justice II" (TOJ2)

[pantera77]

It looks 10x more badass with out the lettering on the back + the tips. Now paint those rims damn it!

Put down the spray paint, pick up the flaring tool. Priorities mang, priorities.

Unrelated, but I may have accidentally found why your ECM relay didn't operate as expected. Did you ever check the ignition fuse in the underhood power box? Apparently when that pops, the ecm relay won't operate. Found that out when I removed it on the 5.0 GMQ project.

The Tank lettering, or the emblems?

Dude, everyone knows that appearance is more important than brake lines!!
( I have the flaring kit, i just need pipe. I may just wait til i do the body mounts when i lift the body later this summer.)

Ignition fuse was/is good. Just some mystical electrical gremlins. I'll check again after work...

I might be able to paint the trunk reflector depending on the wind today. Maybe.

Ok, i gotta eat lunch and go back to work.

1. It looks really sick without both. Get the sticker glue off, and it will look perfect.

2. By the way? That green is really freaking obnoxious.


Don't change it.

3. 17" PI wheels might be a thought.

4. Did I mention that I love the car?

[sly]

the only way to one-up that green would be to neon back-light it or something (glow in the dark and such).

Even though it's only been 20 hours since i de-badged it, I'm really diggin' the nothing on the back look. I just may keep it that way.

I put a crap-load of Goo-Gone on it last night and it rained like hell. Most of the glue fell off this morning. So tonight I will clean it up very good and take some more pics.

I would love 17s. Then i could put the big brake upgrade on. But i just got a set of 15's with new winter tires on them.

And i love the green. It is outrageous.

Hopefully, more to come, this evening.

That's the residual Goo-Gone on the car. It might be washed off tomorrow.
I need to re-do the reflector. It got all hazy and my clearcoat was absolute shit. It hazed very badly. F. And it's not that humid out. Maybe this weekend I can get it done along with the tail lights. Oh, well. As long as it's good to go for the show down tomorrow!

Ordered new odometer gears. Need to order the green LEDs for teh win. Then i can put my dash back together. And thenI can repaint the reflector and tail lights. Ok.

I'm not entirely convinced you have that long, especially with that fuel leak. Maybe I'm paranoid but I've popped brake lines that weren't as scary looking as yours are.

[SVT98t]

I have that fuel leak and am still getting 28 mpg on the highway.
It is on the list of things to do before winter. I will be done soon. I promise.

new brakelines= good

[SVT98t]

Eh, Tank blew a tire on the way back from Watkins Glen yesterday. My spare is just enough to get me to wherever i'm going. So, i have to take the Marauder to the Indy race today. Oh, darn.
-Tank needs the horns fixed.
-New front tires.
-Springs and shocks with poly front and rear bushings
-new timing chain cover
-BRAKE LINES
-alignment

I'll be getting to it.
I received my odometer gears over a month ago. They're still sitting on my desk. Thats how much time i've had. Maybe tomorrow....

(BTW, the Tank went to Watkins Glen and back on just under a half tank of fuel, 325 miles)
