A Big Thanks!!!

Like to say Thank you to Edwin, Hunter and Sean for coming over Saturday to help with the roll cage install. Here are a fwe pics of the cage as it went to gether and preped for a good rattle can paint job (along with the rest of the truck). The one pic of the cage all cleaned up reminded me of the "striiper Pole" roll bar in Lee's 40, however, I have one upped him...mine was for a short time a "stripper gymnasium". Won't be long before it's ready (not the gym unfortunately) for a shake down. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Super sick looking I love it
 
I have to ask with that fender cut why not flip the rear springs or run FJ60 rear springs... That rear axle would look even better 5-6 in farther back

Thanks guys, I have been at this for over 2 1/2 years now, it's time for it to get done....so I can work on the house...and my red 40. I will have to say, I have learned a lot from this particular build, for one, this is the most extensive build I have ever done. I have learned to do every thing pretty much the wrong way (and made it work some how in some cases), but I did learn how to do differently/better the next time.

Joel, Jeff,

I though about the spring flip about 3 minutes after I cut the wheel wells, I will probably go ahead and do that once I get a few other bugs squared away. Edwin gave me a new idea on one or two things that I am going to implement (Thanks Edwin- more work LOL!!!), one pretty quickly (you will see later), the other may take a little bit before I get to it.
 
Ohhh 4 link with coils or coilovers :lol: :p

WL, that's an impressive looking cage. It'll be perfect after you get it chromed. Looks big enough to handle all these girls at the same time. That was your plan all along, right? ;) :cheers:​

Holy Batman, who switched my photo? :eek:

You'd need a Pinzgauer to handle those, uh, ladies...

I just noticed who switched my photo. It was our prez. That pic must be from Jeff's private collection.

I prefer the shy, girl-next-door type. Like this one, Jenn Brown, expert football analyst for ESPN. She really knows the game.:grinpimp:

muhahahaha. I know nothing, nothing!!!
 
Wow very nice
 
WL sorry for telling you about that. i really wanted to do it in my hot rod. if done right it will look and act bad ass. the rear pivit point is were i was having trouble trying to get down. thats why i never did it in my car. if and when you start on it let me know and i will help any way i can.

Lee were did you find the pics of the 4 HOTTEST girls i have ever seen. i love Green & i like how the girl next to her is helping hold her pillow top. very nice
