40 Progress!!!!!!!

[ClemsonCruiser]

Just so you guys don't get to thinking I spend all day on mud, I took some pics of the 40........ the only major thing left to do is skin the tube fenders and paint them, but I have an endless list of small things to take care of before Tellico......... I have a feeling some all nighters are instore

sure has come a long ways in a few months...........

wow

Shows what a dedicated grease monkey can accomplish.
here's a reward
Great progress. Take plenty of pics 'cause it will not be
clean/straight like this for many moons to come, if ever.
Enjoy.

Neighborhood values just went up!

 

[CruisinTiger]

That's ok...you'll help me on friday...with my list....Although I think I'm gonna try and do most of it thurs night once I get home...thinkin it'll be an all nighter thurs night. I think I'm gonna measure and cut the doors thurs night so that all we have to do is weld the top piece on there. Did you happen to look at the drive shaft on the 40?

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Looking damn good Virgo I was even a little impressed when I was looking at it a couple weeks back.

Did you have a sec to see if that gas was coming from the tank or a line?

That can't be the same blue 40 I wheeled with at MLK?

If it is DAMN- Great JOB!

Look forward to seeing it at Gray Rock!

Jp,

Lovin' those fenders dude! How hard were they to put on? They look like the way to go!


hmmmmmm gives me an idea Imm going to be the club copy cat.

 

[CruisinTiger]

It took JP and I about 3 hours to put them on...but most of that time was taking out the battery tray and taking off the gyroscope. We put the second one on in about 40 minutes though so it's not that long of a job. Just gotta be sure the 2 sides are the same hieght. A lot easier than it sounds. But they look badass, those pics don't do them justice, ya gotta see them in person.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

yeah it wasn't to bad of a job, just getting everything level and lined up is the challenge, i messed up the passenger side a bit, it's a little uneven, I am going to see if I can fix it with a heating torch and brute force.........

Truck looks good and mean! Nice job. Don't scratch it up at Tellico.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Don't scratch it up at Tellico.
