Great start I really like the lines on it.. Is there enough room between the axles and the frame. For the axles to move up and down or is it the angle of the pic?

I think I would have asked the same question. Are you going to have enough travel, and still be able to keep COG as low as you can?
That being said, this is a really nice start. Keep up the good work!

X3...I like to keep my trucks as low as possible for stability.

I love the contour of the belt line and the slanted back roof line. It has a very unique look.

I'll let him chime in but the chassis you see now, was modified from his first design.. He sent me PM picture of the first draft. Just a coincidence that when he changed up the back end, it looks like what you pictured.

Throwing it in the trash and starting over unless someone wants to finish it off? Wasn't happy with it and definitely don't want to build a chassis similar to the ones that are already floating around out there. The ones that have had my frames in the past know I don't COPY been done to death frame styles.

Don't trash it. Donate it for a RR10 build.

Steel is forgiving when it comes to fabrication. Modify it into something else if need be.
