Ree - thanks for checking! Nice looking mounts.

Wyo - I just would hate to drill even a single hole on the roof (for electrical for roof rack lighting or something) let alone dozens....
 
Suprise Delivery... TOYS

I'm taking a break for a few minutes. I was summons by the :princess:. She said I had a delivery. I figured it was the metal delivery guy, but when i got up front I had 3 boxes waiting by the door. "I didn't order anything." She said she knew.....................

Well she went and bought the new cruiser some items without telling me.

These items are a little premature, but they will be handy to fab up brackets, spacers, and quickfists..

I have a 2 more gutter mounts to fab and on to the ladder.

My :princess: is cool as ****!

Enjoy the pic HA!

WOW! simply amazing. I am envious of your fab skills. I have a rear quarter panel that I need to cut out and replace. It has me a little intimadated. More pics please, so I can drool some more.
 
Gutter mounts

Ok, I ended up fabricating 8 gutter mounts for the rack. I started with 6, but changed my mind and threw 2 more together. I like the look and it will support anything i will ever put up top for sure.

Cut plates for the corners.. Still unsure on the plan for this yet. They are wedged in place for now.

I still need to clean up everything. I can bring it down now and finish welding the rack out.
 
OH NO! It looks like I've accomplished alot, but I've got tons of welding to do on the bumpers and rack.. Pretty much all of it is hard tacked. I've put in some serious hours on this since I got it.

When I go back to work I won't have much time. I'll work 6 days a week at 12 to 14 hours a day.

I'm just trying to get it where I can weld and do smaller things an hour or two at a time when time and the wife allow.

I want to get started on the sliders and gas can rack as well and hope to have those in the same status before going back to work on Monday.
 
I'm drooling on your shop floor...
 
Grabbing her today!!!
 
Well this afternoon I scored my friends Volvo seats. Pic earlier posted.. He ended up using a different seat setup on his HEAP project. These will take some fab and time to get where they need to be. I'll get pics up when I pick them up in a few days. I wish they were the ones I had before, but for 125.00 I'll take em.
 
This is a fun build to watch because it's going so fast. Reevesci, will you be painting it yourself? I'm kind of diggin' the mottled look you have now. You could call it "Industrial Camoflage". That time I was kidding!
