I like everything about it but the ride height. Is that pic ready to roll? The chassis seems like it is really low. I'm not familiar with the 1:1.

It will be awesome to see it come together though!

Now the good. I have another chassis being built that will be a family rig, but still be able to wear the title "Southern Comfort" well.
It will be getting all the same goodies that were going into the titanium chassis. I have enlisted Matt's(muddauber7) son Tyler(muddauber jr) to build the chassis. It's a clone of WOD's 4 seater Evolution chassis. Sending mock up parts to them today to get the ball rolling.



Stay tuned, this is gonna be fun!!

Plenty of tire clearance! The tubework looks surgical! Nice start.

I'm keeping this one for a while. Just had to job it out and picked some very capable hands to do it.
