it's almost done.

front and rear trusses





more little welds




all that's left is some wiring and its time to drive.

I'm a welder by trade. I used a miller dynasty 350 TIG welder on this chassis.

I took it out to the T.T.C. that was held in Kankakee IL yesterday and it preformed better than I hoped. sorry I didn't get any action shots. but I will get some pics outside in my rock garden.
