I thought that one pic of the 1:1 was it and I almost went pee pee right here. The nylint is looking awesome too though so far.

Small update

Added all the pieces to the passenger's side of the rig to make the front fender. The fenders will also support the hood so all of the abuse isn't limited to just the four stock self-tapping screws.

I guess now it's time to make the front winch plate and stinger.

DARKHORSE · 01-20-2006, 10:05 AM

Dude that rig is awesome, Keep up the good work!!!!

madzuki · 01-20-2006, 02:45 PM

looking good bro. which tires are you gonna run? I was at a hobby store yesterday and there are some claw dawgs that are about the same hieght as the stock NYLINTs but they are wider. just thought those would look like the 49's on the SALLY. looks good though

Going Up! · 01-20-2006, 05:42 PM

Very, VERY sweet!!!!! GOOD job!!

JasonInAugusta · 01-20-2006, 10:32 PM

Got some work done to the front stinger tonight.

Got Rocks? · 01-20-2006, 10:39 PM

wow everytime i see it i cant beleive it good job jia

TwistedCreations · 01-20-2006, 10:49 PM

Yeah but , like the old saying

You can polish a turd and no matter what, you still have a turd.. so all in all, it's still a Nylint.

JasonInAugusta · 01-20-2006, 10:53 PM

Yeah, yeah.

The brake tubing didn't like the tight bend for the apex of the stinger so it has a little kink.

I'll fill the bottom with brazing alloy and file it out so it keeps a constant diameter and radius.

Oh, btw Twisted...elephigivaphuc

TwistedCreations · 01-20-2006, 10:55 PM

But I thought you had to be a "perfectionist"??

Now we all know your just going to polish it some more

JasonInAugusta · 01-20-2006, 11:45 PM

Since Twisted pointed out on AIM that the radius for the stinger was too tight I lopped off the top and made a new one. :neutral: Alcohol and tubers don't mix.

What? you didn't notice the Morgan sitting on my bench during my first tuber build? Maybe that's why it is lop-sided a bit, maybe.

JasonInAugusta · 01-21-2006, 12:11 AM

LMAO!

Asymmetrical buggies are where it's at!

Figured I'd get a couple of mock-up shots.

thaclodking · 01-21-2006, 01:26 AM

With every shot my junk looks better and better, until half-way through the bottle the turd on my bench looks absolutely fabulous. NASA grade stuff! Throw fire into the mix and it's instant party. How I made it this far with all body parts intact is a mystery....

The rig is looking awsome, where did you get the grid board at? I could really use one of those.

armedtotheteeth · 01-21-2006, 01:30 AM

lmao. I use a stock savage tire to prop up my on road nitro car.

Anyways, back to the build.

JasonInAugusta · 01-21-2006, 09:58 AM

That board is a self-healing cutting mat I picked up at Staples.

It's made by Fiskars.

JohnRobHolmes · 01-21-2006, 10:03 AM

oh but JIA never uses it. It sits in his house collecting dust

Going Up! · 01-21-2006, 10:10 AM

That is killer!!! I like the second stinger better. NICE JOB!!!!!!

I does stay in the house.

I bought this to have a clean spot for pictures...sometimes a towel just doesn't cut it.

To actually build and align parts for the truck I don't use the mat. The mat would be too easily damaged when welding. This stays in the office, all the tube work is done in the garage.

You'd be surprised at how few tools I'm using.

TwistedCreations · 01-21-2006, 07:06 PM

The 2nd stinger looks much better

Nice job now
