Im kinda lame at taking pictures but these are what i have. The day i picked it up. First thing i did was chop it 5.5 inches, then was kinda put at a standstill for a few months till i could work on the frame. I picked up an A frame from gene winfield. First i boxed the frame with plates i got from wethebmx. they worked out pretty good. Next i z'd the front the width of the frame. Then came some homemade motor mounts. i channeled the body about 4 inches and just made a temp. floor i made some spring hangers for the rearend. its a 40 ford front spring. and mounted the spring. now the tranny mount. i just used some round polyurethane bushings at the ends and its removable. I z'd it 8 inches. using 2x3 .120, i made the back half of the frame, squared it up, then welded it to the back of the model a frame. and this is where im at today. monday comes the rear spring perch and maybe a roller.
Cool! Any ideas on what kind of wheels/tires you'll be running or what color it'll be when it's done?
ive got some 40 ford 16's with 6.00 up front and 7.50 out back. im looking for another pair of 40 ford rims though.
not sure on the color but im gonna run it how it is for now. but theres definately going to be paint in the future.
BAD ASS Kieran!!!! Keep it up man!!! Make sure you take as many pics as you can bro, you'll hate yourself for not taking enough later.....or in a few years when you wanna share your build with others!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Nice job on the frame, 4" front 8" rear is just right. Good luck with the build and be sure to keep us updated on any more progress. PINCHER
