You should send some pics of this thing in to Peterson's or whatever mag it was when you're done. Great job man. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

well i got my frame back from my sand buy last week and got some updates. got my gauges in the dash pots just have to install the GPS and the rest of the welder parts plus find where the keys went so i got my shocks in and started wrenching on the bottom. chewed out some shock mounts ( they'll get died black once done ) pretty darn close to looking like the real thing? and the front also got my pan rod setup Last edited by Robbob; 12-20-2008 at 08:08 AM. |

now for some brain usage ....... how do i get this steering down to an inch? found some lever thingy for airplanes to use for mock up drilled some holes chopped it up, added some bushings and ball ends and i got something like this this is just the mock up piece, the finished piece is aluminum and a about 3mm longer allowing me more throw. so for the rear axle i dug out a block of the good stuff after a few hours of sawing, gnawing and chewing the fat off and after a little clean up camera batteries died before i could get mocked up pictures but they'll be soon. well thats about it for now. she did stand overnight on shocks with about 4'' of belly clearance 110mm i got are just a bit too tall so gonna grab some 90mms this week. but she is painted .................................................. ............... she gets the gloss coat tonight .......
