[@RoadsterShop]

Great video! Look forward to seeing this one come together - we appreciate it.

[@gingerauto]

Thank you! It has been fun putting it together. It is a work of art!!

[@ronbunker5778]

Frame looks really nice! It's fun assembling when everything is painted and ready.

[@toddzachary4891]

This is gonna be so rad. I know Don’s up there super pumped about this build.

[@gingerauto]

He is for sure! It’s going to be a sick car.

[@wbball15]

Great stuff. Special feeling.

[@donnellrich7803]

Nice my brother.

[@salvadormorales7843]

When you ordered the frame, did it come with the all the hardware? Or did you have to buy the upper and lower control arms, suspension, brake lines etc?

[@gingerauto]

Depends on the options you choose. Everything that we have installed so far has came with the frame.

[@erniebuckley6851]

Did you reinstall the ball joints that were in the chassis when you received it? I had to heat my arms a little to get the ball joints out i could powder coat the arms, I'm going back in with new ones. Hopefully my small press can handle it!

[@gingerauto]

Yeah. I just used a cheap harbor freight press and they went in fine.

I had no idea such an animal existed. So, if I do wind up getting one Roadster owes you a finder's fee. But I would much rather see how you do with yours and get your verdict on the final outcome.

[@gingerauto]

I didn’t know either till my father inlaw ordered it. If it performs half as good as it looks. It will be awesome!!

[@maestromecanico597]

@@gingerauto I don't want to jump the gun but that is a healthy chunk of change. I'd like to get some feedback before cutting the check.

[@gingerauto]

@@maestromecanico597 they are very pricey.

[@maestromecanico597]

@@gingerauto So I’ve noticed.😱 I like the options they offer but, like you said about the gas tank, they are pricey.

[@norbertflamm4036]

What reason you had it powder coated yourself and not from the roadster shop?

[@gingerauto]

We thought that they were going to powder coat it. And when we realized they weren’t it was already packaged ready to ship. So pretty much lack of communication.

[@johnnyhotrod]

Awesome!Want one so bad for my 67 Camaro but I’m gonna have to come into some money first.That’s gonna be an amazing handling car What engine?

[@gingerauto]

Ls3 crate engine from blueprint!

[@sierra6]

HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH

[@devanshhh8408]
