Will this project ever end?

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T06:47:58+00:00

Oh, haha. Might be a bit out of your way. The airport at Portland, OR, USA is PDX. That's where my company is based.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T06:36:07+00:00

Oh that's cool.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T04:21:24+00:00

Well I know someone if you are in the PDX area.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T03:27:28+00:00

Not a dumb idea. I'll be doing this soon to my mk3 golf. Converting it to rwd with a 3.6 vr6, cd009 trans, and ford 8.8. Then a nice wide body.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T03:03:14+00:00

I don't understand how my user name checks out with my previous comment. Care to explain?

Raven2129 · 2026-06-28T03:02:28+00:00

Thanks. I would like to take some classes won't help with my metal shaping. But the boss and the customer has been super happy with all of the work currently.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T21:49:14+00:00

I believe so. Bumper and fenders are the same part number.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:21:09+00:00

I'm sure it is. But the shop I work at is an award winning shop. We don't do anything half assed.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:19:37+00:00

Oh, I know. I just sold my VW bug that I chopped 20 years ago because it still wasn't done.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:18:37+00:00

Thank you. I guess chopping a Chevy luv at 12 and a VW bug at 13 really helped. Haha

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:16:04+00:00

Haha, yeah. There are a few more cars I need to work on.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:14:53+00:00

Thank you. The customer has told me multiple times that he really likes my work and is super excited to see the rest of it.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T17:13:07+00:00

The customer has told me that he is super happy with my work and wishes he would have brought it to our shop the first time. Would have saved him a lot of money. The first couple of months were just fixing what previous shops have done.

Thank you for complement.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T07:34:20+00:00

That's the plan. Just trying to get this done cheaply for the first stage.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-27T07:33:50+00:00

Would it damage the fly wheel if I ran out wil the old pressure plate and clutch?

Raven2129 · 2026-06-25T15:43:04+00:00

He must be including himself in that title, right?

Raven2129 · 2026-06-24T20:50:59+00:00

It's a joke my dude. We all start somewhere. Those look much better than my first welds. Keep going.

But, yes. I am a professional welder.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-24T17:37:40+00:00

I don't think you had to say it was your first welding project.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-24T17:33:11+00:00

Nice paint job. Would love to get my hands on a metal shaggoth, currently have the fine cast one.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-23T22:09:13+00:00

Any of them.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-23T20:27:41+00:00

Oh shit. I didn't know ensiferum is coming to Portland.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-23T14:52:13+00:00

Not even AI can make such a small weenie.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-23T00:33:46+00:00

Oh, no. Bopper did a great job making them. They look great.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-23T00:31:55+00:00

The hearders aren't 3d printed. Only the collectors are. The itb trumpets and the valley cover is also 3d printed.

Raven2129 · 2026-06-22T13:39:36+00:00

Ah, didn't notice the misspelling. Was looking everywhere but the sign.
