Almost done making the rear diffuser for the 63

Well 2 days ago I started on the diffuser project and its coming out nice, today all I got to do is add on the fins and do the finishing touches like paint. Well the pictures speak for itself. Hope you like it. This is just a rough draft of it, if it comes out nice ill start to make it and probably sell it.

Know that’s interesting.
If I remember right… that reason gets hot, hope it didn’t blister your paint.
Keep the pics coming.
Looking forward to the finished product.

You are supporting a 4500lb car with some non uniformly stacked 1"x2" pieces of wood, a scissor jack and have Walmart bags over the exhaust tips..yes those pictures DO speak for themselves.

My friends Father died from messing around with Jacks supporting cars. They found him under his car a few days after it fell on him. Please be careful!

For the record (from your own pics) no one can see the other jacks... But here's what I think is going on here...

You've got the two 3 ton jacks holding the front end up (level), but ended up getting yourself in a bit of pickle with the single rear scissor type jack that made your car teeter-tooter side to side... so to prevent it front rocking, you put the wooden 2x4's down on either end?

Sound about right?
