    Armor Build Up

    Great thread, especially for a newb like myself who was in the market for some heavy duty bumpers. A few months ago when I was looking, it seemed like ARB was the only game in town. I couldn't be happier after dealing with Jason. I can personally attest to the high quality of his work and...

    Metal 4 Motor. . . . . That's my new moto =) He's just a good buddy of mine with a small shop in Brandon, FL. He's definitely no cruiserhead but he is as good of an LS/Corvette mechanic as there is. He's worked on a lot of my high horsepower cars so, the motor swap itself will be a piece of...

    RENNtech's Build

    Initially, I was set on an LS swap. Then, I decided to just stay stock and rebuild the 2F. After a lot more back and forth and tons of research, I ended up getting a great deal on custom built LQ9 6.0 long block rated at 440hp. It's basically, an iron block LS2. Now, before any hardcore gear...

    RENNtech's Build

    As I mentioned in my last post, I had to leave the truck in Florida for a couple months. So, I figured it was as good a time as any to have an LS1 installed. The 2F was fine cruising around the streets of downtown Chicago but on the interstates in Florida, it just didn't cut it for me. So, I...

    Takk Norge !! I went with the spacers purely from a cosmetic standpoint. Chances are they will rub and if that's the case, I'll just remove them. However, that will be on hold for a couple months while I'm back in Chicago and the rig is in Florida.

    Thanks for the nice comments guys ! Thanks ! Yeah, it's a 1962 Porsche Diesel Tractor I picked up a while back. Too funny. I just ordered a LS1 crate motor to put in this thing. I already have the trans so, it shouldn't be too crazy expensive. Will do, I'll take some more pics in the next...

    Unfortunately not. I took the exhaust off to make it easier to grind the rust off the frame and have yet to put it back on. I'll give an update after I put some miles on her.

    Keen observation there Capt. Obvious Thanks Jason ! Yeah, I've put a lot of time and work into it. I still have a ways to go with the little things but don't we all. . . . =) Thanks a lot ! The bumpers definitely improved the entire look of the rig.

    RENNtech's Build

    First, a little background. I picked up this 87' a few months ago in Chicago. We only have a single parking spot in our garage up there. The LC had to street park so, any major changes had to wait until I got back to our place in Florida. In the meantime, I ordered all the usual suspects. Once...

    Thanks Norway ! I don't want to Uff da up Jason's thread. I'll post my own in the 60 forum after I install his bumpers and finish buttoning up a few other details. I will say that I'm super stoked about Jason's products and his all around customer service is spot on in my book !!!
