Thank you! Ive always done my rigs with brakeline. I havent weighed it yet but i tore it apart tonite for paint its pretty light thats for sure. Other than moving the bar behind the headlights i think this thing is ready for paint. I was going to put a couple of bars across the back but that makes it tough to get the interior out any ideas? | |

Heres a couple of shots from a carshow last weekend. Ive read on here people dont like how the claws work. I havent had a problem with them they hook up great. I tore the truck back down added and changed a few bars around. Tonite a took it to a buddys and blasted the cage going to try and get it into paint tommarrow. |

Nice!! Skins look great on there. The mesh up front, is that from the dollar store style trash cans?

NICE! Like the curves around the fenders and dropped door lines! Steel or alum tubing? I see perf'd alum panels. If you used steel tubing, did the perfed alum braze well to it? Great looking rig! |
