    Nice and simple. I bet it will even steer down the road straight. This thing is gonna stand tall in Detroit. Love the wishbone shock mounts. Wish I had done the same.

  6. Thanks dudes and bros... to answer HERETIK above, we use round spun moon style fuel tanks, mounted tight up against the bulkhead in the trunk section. The stock A fuel tank has been all whacked out to accomodate the cowl steering box, and over all foot room.

    HERE ARE SOME PROCESS SHOTS OF A FRONT CROSSMEMBER C NOTCH PROCEDURE.

    Looking good homey! Makes me sick that I have not made any progress on mine other than buying parts over the last few weeks. I need to get with your pops about shaving my front tires.

    Bob glad we could help you out. These black paint pictures are fine but I want to see the Hemi sitting in the frame rails!

    Tyler we stopped out there in Cincy yesterday and Mike gave us the full tour. We tried getting you some heat but he is tough. Whats up with the six string and P-bass? You going to play on the streets this year in Austin?
