It's Alive!

[76FJ40]

After about 3 years my wife's 45 is back on the road again. I still have lots of little things to complete but it's back in one piece. Thanks for all of your help and thanks to Lance Williams and my son Ryan at IPOR for help with the paint.

 

[76FJ40]

It's far from perfect but the wife is happy.

[Cruiser804]

Awesome! Looks great.

 

[Cirbo]

Beautiful. How'd you do the rear flares?

 

[daniel.watters]

Nice! Cirbo, any updates on yours?

 

[76FJ40]

Beautiful. How'd you do the rear flares?

Here's a picture of the hack job I started with on the rear flares - nice angle iron. The new flares are 1" square tube against the bed and 1" round tube for the outside edge. I would have preferred the stock wheel opening but you work with what you've got.

Sure is purdy Bob. Glad to see it back together.

Sweet!

Wish my wife wanted a Cruiser.....

Or even wanted to ride in mine....

Didn't that belong to someone on here previously? I remember it from a few years back - I think John Merkey installed PS on it but I don't recall who owned it.

I bought it from Jeff Dozier and Tom Humphreys owned it prior to Jeff.

[Von Hayek]

Gorgeous. Nice day when you achieve a long-term goal.

 

[toddslater]

Looks outstanding...even for you I'll send the piece of pork that Dozier sold me over to you cause I need a break from workin on stuff It looks mucho nicer than when I saw it at Rausch a few years back you done good Now is bringing it to CMCC ?

 

[76FJ40]

The wifey tells me she coming to CMCC and camping at RC but I really don't see that happening. I'm going to try to bring the 45 either way.

 

[Toy25ht]

Very Nice

 

[Wayneraintree]

Cheers Bob and company.... now let's see a burnout vid

..... or some action shots from CMCC would work too

Did ya leave the body lift on?

 

[76FJ40]

Took the body lift off and gave it to someone who would appreciate it - he drives a Chevy pickup.

 

[Chamba]

Wow! Is there a build thread on this somewhere that I've missed? It looks fantastic.

Cheers,

Josh
