NEWBIE WITH BIG KIT and CUSTOM CAR DREAMS

[jaimegarch]

Hi Guys!

Newbie JaimeGarch here.

Certified car nut that just got pushed over the edge (youll see what I mean in a minute).

Was searching for any custom or kit car builders in the Phils and saw a post here on this forum. Turns out the last post of the thread was referring to the one I was building. It seems there are a few of us nut jobs doing this in the Philippines ,Pacita Fibertech, Michelle Motors, Rapid7, are the ones I know of.

Anway hoping to get to meet more builders and enthusiasts here and crack open a few beers while talking shop.

Wont post too long for now lest I wear out my welcome quickly.

Leaving you with picts of my two current projects. Feel free to comment!

Interesting! What are the base models of these builds?

[jaimegarch]

Hi there! First the red is based on a stratos but there are many differences already built in in the body design.

the black one is sort of based on a common roadster body but has elements of many other roadsters.

the red used a galant v6 as donor car for the rear section.

the black one used the front and rear subframrs of the 123 body.

the main chassis is custom built.

thanks for the interest!

The roadster seems nice, if a bit toned down in its styling.

Toyota Crown chassis must be nice too, as a donor car and ready to accept 1JZ or 2JZ engines ;)

Hi Lester! Both are actually running pero were sorting out yung mga go fast bits. :-)

Youre absolutely correct! But the J series engines are a little too hyper me thinks! hehe! Aside from teh crown the older for Cortinas make nice donors too!
