Pacesetter Grizzly Restoration
Posted: December 10th, 2013, 9:16 pm
Here are some restoration pictures of my Pacesetter Grizzly project. I had posted these before but had some forum issues that seem to have deleted the thread.
This is a car that I have had for a number of years and moved it to the front burner to get some work done on it. Unfortunately, it got pushed to the back burner awaiting parts but it should be progressing now that I have found some of the things I was looking for. I'll post new pictures as it nears completion, but for now here are the pictures I have on hand.
How it looked when I received it. Not my bench, mine is nowhere as clean as this one.
My photos are taken on the satellite bench.

Chassis back from powder coating and some assorted cleaned parts.


Front end coming together. Still need to install rods and rod ends.



Trans looking like a trans again instead of a pile of parts.

Back end coming together.


Exploded view of a 35cc engine!!


Need to decide on what pipe.

What it should look like if you remember where everything goes.


Filling in some empty spaces of the chassis.


Ahhhhh, nothing beats the look of a new fuel tank.


Added a little bling with the new stainless chain and braided fuel line.




A body I have that has real nice original lettering, shame it has a little damage up front. It pains me to have to re-paint this one because of it's originality and period correctness.


Mock up of wheels I intend to use. Finishing the hubs soon to do a final mounting.

Hope to finish this one up soon and start on another project. Have some loose ends to tie up like shocks and some other assorted stuff.
There's another one of these in the collection that will be restored too but it's not at the front of the list. It did it's part in helping as an assembly manual for the first one though!
