New Texas Team officially started build on Friday Nov 13 2009 (Page 3 of 5)

Derrick had told me about that stuff, and thats what we were gonna do, but we're gonna try to pull 1st.

Our car will foshizzle have the garden trim stuff on it though one way or the other.

worked on it some tonight.

heres how it looked when i left, click the pictures to go to the facebook fanpage album

also check www.therustinthewind.com i'll be updating it tomorrow some more.

Paint it American Flag style, like the on on "My Name is Earl"!

we have themes lined up for the many events we'll do later this year, for the debut, the brat is terrible/awesome enough just to rockout "subaru brat with jump seats"

the whole car will probably flex, this is lemons, who cares.  maybe if we get lucky it will break in half, and help us shave some wieght.

It's a supercharged LS-Series GM Engine... I highly doubt it's an LS9 or LSA... So I am guessing it's a run of the mill LS1 or LS2 with an aftermarket screw type blower. Nice choice...

But I think one of those Aeromotive pumps needs to be sent my way... I'll take the shiney new one.

also in pertinance ot the brat, ill take some pics this week, its coming along.

engin is in and done, same with rearend, same with seat, and a bunch of other crap.

Yeah, i got one of your team members email/pm/whatever that seemed like yall thought I ripped on your idea, and then changed it to THE rust in the wind.

in all honesty the name was decided after I couldn't stop singing kansas's dust in the wind to my girlfriend, then thought rust was a good excuse to keep singing it when she told me to stop

So we're almost done, and I have a test I didn't start studying for until about....4 hours ago in...1 hourish.  yippee.

We couldn't get the mainfold to work so we spent $20 on a straight piece of alumanized pipe from a muffler shop, and setoff on a mission with our freinds Mr. Bandsaw, captain TIG, Master Rogers and several other shop buddies to turn that pipe not straight....ummmmmm....or something like that.

So with a lot of this

And lacking much of this

We got a little bit of this

That turned into this

Not bad for a $20 header.  More pics/updates later today.  Check out our sites that are already linked 10000x in this thread as I'll be updating everything today, we should be ready to rock this weekend, gonna be pretty rad.

Just reazized I posted wrong picture that was originally a two inch diamoter straight piece of pipe then we piecut welded and built

partially on purpose, partially because i'm too lazy to push it out and post it, but if you poke around there are some full body shots.

the back looks AWESOME.  we wanna get it done done before we take like full body shots though and get it a myspace page.

ok, we're bloggin.
