Well i don't really need tabs for any chassis work, just mounting stuff, like accessories,coolers, floors, skins, battery,fuel pump, filter, ecu, grill, harness', dash, fuel cell, rear winch, arb compressor, shifter, brakes, and all the "details" the big stuff is done.

Making all of the tabs got me thinking about the cnc table. Thought i'd dig a little.

 

[Clark]

appreciate the props guys, can't wait to get some materials monday and start whipping stuff up.:beer:

[bigiron]

[CHOP SHOP]

I have 6 different styles of tabs for all kinds of stuff. let me know if interested.

This looks like the rig that I picked up in Phoenix about 2 years ago and hauled to shoreline for a guy named Ben?.........the guy in Phoenix that sold it had a tear in his eye when I hauled it out of there.

I think that is the same...goes by illyota (spelling) on here and his name is Ben.....Very nice guy

 

[Bunk1]

It figures Ben would sell it when it was almost done:flipoff::beer:

Heres a generic source for misc tabs and whatnot, Shipping takes a while.

This is the one, i think Ben had a tear too.:booo:

That's him, ILLYOTA. Super nice, gave me a nice deal too.

 

[Clark]

well i got ahead of myself and made skin templates, the side is mirrored and fits both sides, so that worked perfect. Using the hood it came with but i'll clean it up. And made a roof template too. I have one sheet of aluminum too, but i think i'll need two, the panel is 25" tall, if it was an inch smaller i could do 2 on one sheet. More tomorrow:stirpot:
