I have an important announcement to make…..

I prefer a cannon ball into the rabbit abyss, might as well take out as much fodder as I can. Belly flops are the problem.

jaw dropping. Wow!

Its a symphony…

Just keeps getting better. The tub is so close to spraying. The anticipation is palpable, so thick you could cut a slice and run your high beams off of it for a month or just keep it in the glove box for an emergency.

When does the diamond plate go back on?

When does the diamond plate go back on?

It’s getting show chrome in Dayton. That process takes awhile as it’s pretty labor intensive.

Have to brag a little on my team(all 3 of us). I picked up the @Aqualu Industries tub on 10/16/23. The amount of work that has went in to get to this point was staggering. Appreciative to @Chungas Revenge for trusting us with his vision as well as keeping an open mind.

I don’t own a shop but I’ve built a lot of stuff for people and considered starting one. Customers ruin me from doing it every time, but it’s so nice when you get one that understands it’s not a 1 week tv show and good work takes time and money. (Tried to say the money part quiet in case the shotgun wielding missus happened upon this….)

I am so impressed watching you guys assemble a Land Cruiser from the custom work you’ve put into it that If I was in better shape I’d take a ride to see it person….

Ever watch a space shuttle lift off in person? ….. Same thing!

@Jdc1 are you guys filming these assemblies, custom fits, etc etc…. It could still be a great show to enjoy…doesn’t need to be an hour… I’d sit there for days…..like Woodstock !

Hello my name is Chunga, I’m a project-o-holic.

The Mule has always been a canvas. Sometimes it was more like graffiti than art but, a canvas nonetheless. @Jdc1 and I talked over and over again about where the Mule came from, where it was and where it needed to go. Once we shook hands, the creative part spontaneously erupted. It’s that process that knits this whole customer/shop thing together.

There’s so many nuances to this project, that may or may not be detected at 1st glance. But, they are outside the box solutions worked out by the “guys on the ground”.

In this particular part of the face lift 2.0 thread, I’m just the story teller. Full credit to the guys at RCLC for their hard work, creativity and outside the box approach.

Tossing the pic in just because..

I can’t say it didn’t cross my mind…

Thanks for the kind words, we’ve joked about starting an only fans for cruiserheads but Wilson can’t promise to keep his shirt on.

You can’t make this up.

The Mule, on more than one occasion, has claimed sports car lineage. The guys pulled the paint today and lo and behold, seems this same color code was used by Ferrari… Marrone Scuro = “Dark Brown”. A Dark Brown Ferrari? Really!!??

What’s next, Italian leather???? Mmmm, I don’t think so Mule.

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Now it’s getting real….

Whole team is assembled, masking applied and waiting. This could be the day.
