Okay, so I live in El Do-nowhere, AR, where there's nothing but pine trees and you are a two-hour drive from anywhere, but here is a view from my office window. . .

bonjo, Brooklands look great. Where did you score those?

subtlez28, If you haven't already, join the Stalker V6 Yahoo Group: http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/stalkerv6/ There are several M-spec builds under way. Check out the Stalker V6 Gallery (last page or so): http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php Good luck with the build and post pics in the gallery.

Bonjo2, I mounted a rear wing on #85. I also purchased a similar front wing, but haven't mounted it yet (one of my many winter projects). Here's a link to the rear wing in the Stalker Gallery: http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=20677

Man, what a bone-jarring experience that must have been!

Bonjo2, I just ran across your youtube drive. You should post a link here so we can watch the show. :lurk:

Who knows, if you drill enough holes in a brick, just maybe . . . :leaving: http://www471.pair.com/stalkerv/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=20708

Bonjo2, Car looks great. I understand the fun factor vs the work-on-it factor. I have mine down for winter projects and wish I had waited a bit longer.:driving:

My Stalker has 'unpainted' WCM aluminum fenders. I gave them a brushed look . . . and, no, I ain't gonna paint'em. And your car looks great the way it sits, fenders and all.

. . . I ain't got the words. :rofl:

Steve, Nice car. Where was the previous location of the O2 sensor? As it stands, I'd say place it (the O2 sensor) in the top of the collector, just aft of the header.

Congratulations!!!! And welcome to the club! I admire anyone who can 'scratch build' a seven. Great looking ride. Please forgive the color of the text (or just enjoy the humor), but you did say all the JD jokes had been used up. p.s. curious about those wheels????

Bonjo2, Gallery #156 only has three pics . . . maybe #157? Some very nice pics in 157.

Al, aka, burned-out-looking- bearded guy , Awesome job on the car and great writeup!

Thanks, Z3. I just ran across your Walmart post. That's just too funny.

Just ran across this post. Though I was going to wet my skivvies laughing so hard. I'm headed to WM for Kibbles.

WCM fenders installed w/ Center Line 17" wheels: 4" backspacing both front and rear; 8x17 front; 9.5x17 rear. Tires are Nitto NT-01: 225/45-17 front; 255/40-17 rear.

Anybody can play by the rules . . . but what fun is that? The driver with the biggest smile wins. :hurray:

Bump TTT

I thought about trimming the fenders, but probably will not. I'll more than likely use the additional length to tie into a rear diffuser.

Dean G., No, you haven't been missing anything. These fenders (originally designed for the WCM Ultralite) are flush at the bottom of my car (forward of the tire) and truly do hang down below the rear quarter; larger, longer fender. All things considered, this was the best fitment I could come up with that served the purposes of both form and function. I’ll post a few more pics (side view) which shows the flush portion forward of the tire along with the overhang in the rear. Future plans call for adding a rear difusser to 'tie' it all together.

I do like the idea of combining the classic look with the M-spec mechanics. Sounds like a home run to me.

bonjo2, Thanks. Did Sharkey take you for a ride in this car when he owned it? And I would certainly like to see some pics of your LS3 Stalker if you wouldn't mind sharing.
