BIG UPDATE!
My wheels have gone on a trip to Charlotte to have the 6-lug centers welded in! I should have them back in a week or so.
I have been bending tube like an insane person and tonight I finally got started putting it all together!
An idea of what it'll look like
Me melting metal
OH BOY THAT WAS A BLAST...getting everything level and equal
What do you think?
Here's how I left it tonight

I think you are 1000% better at bending tubing than I am.
It's sweet ass dude. I love the tube rear. I like that you cut off the rear of the frame. It just makes it look so much neater. No sense in having the back half of the frame.
Keep it up. I know how quickly $20 and $50 trips to the parts store add up.

Thanks guys....BTW I am a newb at bending tube! This is the 2nd thing I've ever built! I think I'm doing pretty good though. As far as the $20 and $50 parts runs...I haven't had one yet(unless you count tube runs to Bud's )
More progress!
I got the driverside rail in tonight! The main pieces that everything will tie into are now on!
This was a pain in the ass to get equal. It took a big level, chain'd come-a-long, a sissor jack, a new fabbed tool, a ratchet strap and some cussing
Just gotta make sure...

I need more tube!
Tube Cost
What is tube running per foot? I was wondering how much it had gone up in a year.

Don't complain...it's more that double that up here
Lot's of SCH40 cages & tube work in this neck of the woods
DOM Price
DOM was more than that over a year ago here. I hate to think what it's gone up to.
