AdamMeh Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks! Now I just need to figure out how to make the real bracket for the fender. The one I used here is just to hold the regulator in place for plumbing purposes. I need to make one that will clear the hood when it shuts, but I'm not even sure where to get the materials (thinking aluminum sheet) for this part of it. Any advice on this? Maybe someone that could bend up something like this for me if I gave them the specs and a drawing to go by? It's not a complex piece really.

AdamMeh Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks for the offer! I appreciate your willingness to help out another C3 guy I had already called a local AC shop and they are bending me one up to my specs for $15. Said I could pick it up this afternoon. Can't turn that down lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dale68z Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Adam You have an IMCA modified tire. Transported a few engines and dropped a whole bunch of 55 gallon methanol drums on those tires. Awesome project!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamMeh Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Thanks Dale! Had the real regulator bracket made and got everything mounted up this weekend. Pretty happy with the results - good clearance for the hood and didn't have to drill a single hole by using the existing one in the fender lip.
