That's cromoly tubing...about 22' of it if I remember right.

No idea how the All-Ts do in the mud.

Picked up stuff for the body panels today...can't decide on a paint scheme.

If any of you have ideas, post'm up.

Pearl Blue and Burnt Orange baby.

JasonInAugusta 10-08-2006 08:13 PM

See, that's odd.

I was just on the phone with the wife and she said "How about blue and orange?"

Never thought they'd look right together.

Frame is painted:

Local guy is cutting paint masks for me.

Hopefully I can get the new skins painted by the weekend.

RALPH has always been a favorite of mine. One of the best looking tubers ever. I would love to have a tuber sized to make Swamp Kongs look the same scale as those All-T's on RALPH.

Yeah, I can cut tape, but nothing like what will be on the panels. Just wait. ;-)

No, that is somewhere in the north-east.


Sheldon, Yup! :mrgreen:

Hopefully I can get'm soon enough to have the rig painted and ready to drive this weekend.

I was going to have extras cut for future use...I'll have to slide you a set. These are going to be sized for Ralph but I'm sure you'll still find a use for them.:mrgreen:
