|  My Comp Tuber Build
My goal is to make a 2.2 tube chassis that can be competition worthy. I got the 90% of the cab finished before I ran out of oxygen for my torch.  <br>  <br>  More pics coming tomorrow after I get more torch fuel. Last edited by TJeeperMan; 04-20-2006 at 04:38 PM. |

| Looks good but that stinger is way to tall. If it was my build I would shorten it up to about the hood hieght or just barly taller. But its not mine so do what looks best to you. I look forward to seeing the finished build. Ive always prefered jeeps over toys. |
