You really need to pay more attention to detail, Pat. And take a little more time to get things exactly right!

(Removing tongue from cheek now.)

 

[landcruisnman]

Hoping the frame will never be at this angle after this..finishing up any left over welding needed.

 

[landcruisnman]

Done with most of the welding. Rear bumper tabs done.

How long has it been since you drove it, seems to me @ 3 years. Projects of this caliber take plenty of time and patience.

Going to be a bad ass 55!

Ron,
I haven't drove this pig since 2009. Way to F*** long. I'm thinking Surf n Turf 2019 I could pull off. It will be a rolling powder coated chassis in 2-3 weeks with all suspension on and axles rebuilt (no lockers yet-I can put those in later). I can't cut any corners now. I just want to drive it!!!

 

[bobm]

Throw the tires on and have someone push you around the F@#@ing parking lot .

 

[landcruisnman]

Don't think I won't....

 

[landcruisnman]

D Ring tabs and going to powder coat tomorrow..all welding done.

Damn dude. That thing is beautiful.

So do you work at Richer Racing? Or are they just letting you use thier shop? Friends with the owner?

 

[landcruisnman]

Friends with owner. Jonny Richer and his guys do awesome work. Jonny and I came up with this design and I'm hoping it'll have good driving characteristics.

D Rings on and hook for winch line
Time to make it all look nice with some powder..
