No words, just leMons pics!

Lettuce have a serious thread in which no fun is had, but lots of pics and stuff.


Some men can't drive le stick.

Picking up le victim.

Some front end damage


Some pics from today, first day or work.


Pulled the whole interior for cleaning and resale as anything we sell can be used to offset cost of mods.


Hardest working mechanic there

Some interior pics


More pics will come as more progress is made, progress for the sake of progress will be slow.

Puppyyyyyyyyyyyy

Overall good impromptu progress today. Interior is basically stripped, doesn't smell like mouse piss anymore, some good effort put in by Brandon, Matt, myself, but most of all Hailey. Lets get some stuff sold so we can start fixing things!

very good day today... i think first thing we need to fix is that clutch problem... we prob shoiuld drop out the engine and trans together and do the clutch stuff and engine seals at one time... then once its mechanically sound we can focus on cage stuff.. thats just my thought if any other members wanna chime in with what they wre thinking feel free... as of now its only shifts and drives when the clutch wants too

Good job! Looks like you guys got a lot done. I would agree with Brandon and get the clutch issue resolved prior to the cage. I will post the sale thread tomorrow for most of the items.

That's kinda scary cause Matt, Bls, and myself were thinking the same in chat tonight. I'm pretty certain the slave is leaking as we saw the fluid in the bell housing. I agree we should drop the k to do the clutch and seals at the same time. Lets remember the clutch fork the first time, too

Bought a car to race in next years 24hrs LeMons race. There is a team so far that is not all "pals" and yea, we are in the tear down phase. Gonna try to sell as much as the stock interior stuff as we can and then access what needs to be done to make teh car track ready.
