Default Racecar Project Update

I was finally able to pick up my chassis today and begin working on it. Automobile Associates of Canton, CT did a great job with the custom cage and exceeded my expectations. Now the rest of the welding begins for the air jacks, seam welding, bracket removal and filling unused holes. Here is a picture of the cage, and the seam welding I did today.

I dont know if you noticed, but that thread is 10 years old, Geoffrey has since sold the car.

Seam welds stiffen up the chasis.

I'm looking for a company in the NE region of the US that can acid dip and e-coat. If I can't get the e-coat then I'd settle for powder coating.
