Getting close! (For those that don't make it over to the hardcore section)

[Eskimo]

I took the week off from work to bust ass on my project (9 days straight, 12+ hours a day working in the shop.. I'm in so much pain now..) But, it's getting close! Another couple of weeks and she'll be rolling out of the garage under her own power...

Oh, and for the record, I didn't cut up a good cruiser.. Mine has always been a bastard of about 4 different cruisers that was put to gether to make a trail rig, starting with a bare frame... Don't want to anger the purists..

Driveshafts Friday, Exhaust Saturday, and Asheboro on 8/4... Though a friend is trying to talk me into a URE run this Sunday the 29th, but I don't think it's ready yet.

So I see a Cruiser hood, and part of the frame? Anything else Toyota on it?

That thing is totally bad! URE would be a nice initial exercise since there's nothing difficult for it down there. Just post up if you go, I want to see it in action.

The cowl, bib, gauge cluster, 1/2 the steering column, glove box, and heater are all Cruiser. The brake M/C and booster are Toyota also - minitruck pieces. Oh, and the most important thing besides the bezel - the title.

I'll be doing a run in Asheboro the next weekend (Devils' Playground), and sometimes they wind up at Uwharrie afterwards.. Might have to do a few trips up and down Kodak and some sort of WOT assault on Daniel - to find the weaknesses to fix before our trip to Harlan the week after..
