We are deep into the Pontiac, Stock Car (NASCAR) build.
Here’s some of the major items completed or underway, amongst many other smaller jobs ticked off.
The car has been measured from front to back and everywhere in between.
Centre lines and datum points marked.
Front and rear end geometry measured, moment and roll centers calculated.
The car has been weighed. Weight and weight position/distribution is something we are focusing on throughout the build.
Engine and gearbox position set.
Fabricating mounts.
Diff housing/camber modifications.
New steering column fabricated and machined, working on seat and pedals position.
Bodywork modifications to make the car more symmetrical. Mainly front and rear quarter panels/wheel arches.
Bumpers trimmed and rear spoiler position set.
Min & max ride heights set.
We also had a very special visitor to the workshop.
Australian racing/engineer legend John Sheppard!
John built this car 35+ years ago to race at Calder Park Thunderdome.
Originaly built with an Oldsmobile Delta body (red car in pics).
He came to see the car, telling some great stories from his NASCAR and touring car days, also offering some expert advice on our build.
It was an amazing experience, and we’re hoping to bring him back once the car is finished!
We are also open to sponsorship to help us through the 2026 season.
Be it big or small.
