P.S. on the 200k mile club

I'm not real sure right now. It'll probably be when it's good and cold outside. I'll have more free time then when there's no yard work and it's too cold to camp. I've got access to a nice heated building so it'll be fine. Like I've said before, mine will closely follow what I did on the front, or at least that's the plan.

yeah i wanted to keep mine close to the front too. i think i did though at least my version of it. its made of the same peice of tube, has the pieces running under the body towards the wheels and is angled in. but it was a pain to get things to line up nice and tight fitting.

thats cool youll have a heated building keep you warm in the cold though. ill keep my eye out for yours hope it turns out good like your front did.
