that's very sweet tube work! worried about your axles with those tires though.....how much do you think it will weigh? and what engine do you have?

machen4x4 · Jan 28, 2011

if we start breaking i am trading these 43's for a set of 40 trepps
we are running a built 22r motor that has just been built.
as far as weight hoping that it is gonna be around 4,000, hoping for less. we are gonna weigh
it as soon as we are done with the front and motor is in it.

hey guys still working on it, just cut all the front end off of it, getting ready for material tomorrow to extend the frame. gutting all the dash heater stuff.
waiting on bumpstops for the rear and new corbeau seats black with red. going to cut alot of the floor out and make tubular frame for the seats to tie into the frame.
will post a few pictures tomorrow afternoon.
