every tool dropping/beer drinking galant owner needs this

Hey guys, although this is my first post, I've been registered to the forum for a year or two.
I just wanted to post a few pics of my handy beer / tool holder.
My days of bumping beers off the valve cover and spilling them down into the injectors or onto the exhaust are all over.

aside from this thing being extremely useful for tools and what not.
it helps to direct the flow of air into the radiator than over the upper core support.




This next picture is of the two out of our three galants in town...And they're ALL RUNNING. Woot!
the gold one on the left is mine the white car is a friends.




A little video of the car at idle

 

im the owner of the "rally style" or not lowered white galant and got a few more pics of this and ALL should own one!!!

light beer? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

 

I used the Bud Light can for show, im a guiness drinker normally.
this post is mostly a feeler to see what people thought

I used a piece of 10 ga aluminum sheet and ALOT of careful measuring.
I didn't know if the hood would close if I made it full length vs just having it over top of the grille, but it all clears and the hood closes fine.

JUST REMEMBER TO REMOVE YOUR BEER BEFORE CLOSING, LOL.

I think Guiness has less alcohol than Bud Light. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

Interesting concept though. Pretty sweet. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

ha that makes 1 usable cupholder on the car /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

 

[onesickcrx]

I like it looks cool and cleans up the engine bay a little /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif

OMG....I actually really really like this.

That is absolutely awesome! We need a group buy for this, and we need you to produce some quantity of them, if you can. Otherwise I will make one myself, I'm sure.

As others have said, it would make for at least one useful cup holder, thanks to Mitsubishi for providing none!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

 

Thanks guys, I figured some of you would dig this. knowing from experience how often we all work on these
cars, I had to post, any of you can make one of these easily. the cutout for the hood latch is as tight as I could make it. you dont really have to cover the headlights tho, I did for aesthetics and for more tool and beer real estate.LOL

I was thinking about making a few of these to sell, I basically already have the template on my car, the only thing is All the holes would need to be made by you, because none of these cars are exactly the same.

Ill eventually post more pics and info about my ride when I get the chance.
like for instance how nicely the SRT-4 seats fit in our cars, /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

 

Nice piece. Definitely a beer drinkers helper. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Wop,
Correct you are. Giuness4%,giuness stout4.27%, bud light 4.2%

 

[Fever]

NICE. Would be cool to hear the measurements of this thingie. Sketch, draft or something like that /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[G]

Ha! That's awesome. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif

 

[Street Surgeon]

Awesome indeed, good stuff man!

 

[Terry Posten]

I would take one, but don't need the drink holder.

And I agree about selling them blank without any holes.

If you sell just a blank plate, count me in.

Thanks.

It'll hold MD too Terry.

The new Challenger has two cupholders molded in the front end cover under hood too.

 

[mooserage]

One without the stock hood latch slot would be great for people using hood pins too...

This is what you should really have, who needs cup holders when you can carry cases of beer on the top workbench of this tool box. Even has 4 wheel disc brakes. I just got done the other day with silhouetting and inventorying all the drawers for our 250-300 tools that go in it /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif.
