    Strut Bar

    Have one of the strut bars I made (made a couple a while back trying to decide if I wanted to make them on a larger scale), Premade a couple and a customer backed out.

    It is wrinkle coat (pretty tight wrinkle finish) black ends and a polished bar.

    Wrinkle coat is curing right now.

    Pictures of the actual bar tomorrow (will bolt it into my car for the pictures).

    115 Shipped and paypalled takes this away. Make an offer if you dont like my price. I would like to make my trip to seattle this next weekend for my Job interview.

    Until then, here are the pictures of one I made for 1982Dragon and his TC car.




    Here are some pictures from YotatoySupra85 and his car

    Honestly..I cant tell ya. I am about 95 percent positive that it will...the big "resonator" portion thing would be my only concern but Im pretty sure that is far enough back. As you can see the bar itself is about inline (just a smidgen forward) of the front most strut mount bolt...Been far too long since I have seen one of these cars with a properly mounted stock intake.
    These bars clears my buddies 82 with a stock intake tube...but it didnt have the resonator (small piece of pipe installed in place).
    Ill look for a detailed picture of a stock engine bay and compare locations of where my bar sits and the stock intake resonator

    After searching through the gallery, Im bumping to 98% sure it will clear. If the 2% chance it doesnt..I think it could with a slight rotate of the intake resonator.

    Yea I recommend it guys. I am sure if will clear stock piping easily. I am however getting a bit of rubbing on the bar... but nothing too crazy.
    Getting rubbing on bar and chimpy pipe. I currently have factory blanket on underneath hood.
