Thanks. I checked his work out. Pretty sweet. I do like his front grill and headlights.

I need a pipe bender.

Thanks, I want to also!


got some good saw zaw blades finally. Managed to hack 6" off the frame (low side). So how about a 82 degree approach angle! Pretty excited about that. Picture is with the radiator in place.

tomorrow I will buy some metal for the frame and steering box mount.
