VE Coupe60 concept tribute
Nov 26th, 2009, 3:57am
 
G'day fellas
I built this one for my self. Its the PE8 popping rod from my Saqa series of GT rods but with some special touches. I had an auto body shop finish this blank in 2 pack auto epoxy paint. I setup the color scheme as a tribute to the concept car that Holden showed off at a recent car show. I hope they build em and I hope I would be lucky enough to get one, one day. Thanks to Arty from fish therapy I have the perfect reel match to this as well
 

 
 
This stick was also tested with brutal static loading and high sticking to 26kg measured on the scales. The titanium frame SiC ring Fuji lowrider guides are setup to cast a long 200lb leader. I had to undertake extensive test casting for optimum guide placement to enable this leader to come off the spool and shoot through the guides like a charm
 
Hope you enjoy the pics. Go Holden and the the V8s
