Nice to have a full day for yourself, it’s a wrap.
Happy New Year !

First off, you're nuts. Secondly, awesome work.

Not many hours spent as I would’ve liked, chassis started to get too heavy for me, glad my kid still living at home !
Did some final rear suspension dialing, gaining about 1 1/2” of ground clearance (empty). Trying to figure out the wheel base but not before mounting the body so I can fabricate the rear shock tower/roll cage support and move forward with drivetrain

Cowl is temporarily bolted to tub while tub is fully secured to the frame. One custom slider is completely mocked so I can copy the mounts for the other side. Still needs rear suspension guessing while waiting for the beadlocks. Soon will have to start doing body work so I can mock the roll cage
