How did that tub ride up on the boards? Did you travel very far like that? I have to go pick mine up here real soon and don't know if I can get away with the pick-up or if I need to take a trailer down there.
DAMN! The whole garage gives me a woody!

I drove 30 miles of good roads (some sharp curves on a 3 miles mountian stretch at 45 mph) with no problems at all. i did 65 on the freeway.
We used a fork lift to put it on at work and the cherry picker to pull it off the pick-up and set the body on the frame. Shipping weight was 465 lbs. Tub and cowl was less than 400. 4 of us picked it up and set it back and down in the pick-up bed so that the cherry picker would work. (Too high on the boards)

You really should wear a matching shirt to the dog vest, It goes more with Xmas.(JK)
Nice tub, Looks like you have a nice setup with that garage and tools.

It looks like the dog is on guard in case anyone tries to run off w/ Dad's new tub!
Yery nice indeed! The body on the frame is such a milestone step (even if it only takes a few min). Looks like you've got a bit of an aluminum fettish, what else is there other than the radiator and Aqualu fenders???
Cheers on the progress,

Speaking of matching, the bling aluminum and pollished steel all over the place dont really match the rusted chrome wheels.

That all the aluminum I need. No more rust
The rusty wheels will be for sale soon...I have a set of shinny chrome and black set to go on once I decied on new tires 33's or 35's.
If the wife want to put a vest on the Doggie it OK as long as she let me buy more cruiser parts. The "other helper in the photo is my Dad who was kind enough to lend a hand unloading the body.

Haha. Good enough for me. I like my 33s for what its worth. Dont think i would really gain much by going to 35s.

that body tub and cowl came with the windsheild right ? i would love to see a shot of the windshield frame . i am looking at getting the complete aluminum tub also
if they hit, shoot me a PM and I will send you two 1/4" spacers I have laying around. I had they on my rig before when I was running some ugly gold/chrome mods. I'll be at my in-laws the 25th and 26th if you know by then. They did not rub o when they were on my rig, but I have a mini disk conversion.
