Nice detail

 

[Drsmash]

I really like the round detail put into the corner. Makes it stand out.

I just made a new rear bar a couple of months ago and have also wrapped it from the chassis and rear of sub tank. It really gives it that finished look and keeps so much debris out of the chassis/body.

Nice work!!!

Nice.

That is some of the best fabrication work I've seen and on a very clean 80.

Your bumpers look great. Really like the front one. Did you just start laying out pieces or make templates to cut out? Great Fab work!!!

 

[DiscoveredLC]

Thanks fellas!


90% of the time I just take measurements and starting cutting steel. If I have a tricky piece that i'm not sure of how it will look, then i'll cut a piece of cardboard to see how it will look. Normally I just picture the entire thing in my head and go from there.

That rear bumper looks awesome!!!

Some progress... Still waiting on the tire carrier spindles from Comp4x4, so once those show up I can weld them in and send the bumper to powdercoat.

 

[DiscoveredLC]

Guessed pretty darn good on the length of tubing!

It ended flush with the follow bar as I hit the 70* mark.

that bumper looks great.

 

[Delancy]

that bumper looks great.

No doubt. Commendations are in order for the fabrication.

 

[DiscoveredLC]

been a slow build since work has me busy. Comp4x4 spindles on the bumper.

Any reason why the spare went on the ps instead of the ds? Beauty fab work by the way.
