Couldnt help myself

Looks great! cant wait to see more.

Frame

Well I finally finished the chop, and now I am working on the frame. I have 40 Ford front axel, and a 9 inch ford rear. A friend of mine gave me a 283 w/ power glide complete, or 265 or 327 or 350. I plan on making my own front and rear link suspention with maybe air bag. Well any way here is my chop with my frame material. Oh, by the way the steel was 490.00 WOW!!!!!.

Frame

I got my frame welded and I am going to start building my suspention pieces. my buddy and I spent alot of time on the plasma cutter cutting those pieces out of the plate steel. I cut everthing free hand using a pattern marked to steel. Should have a good moch up by this weekend. Special thanks to Wes for grinding most the day!


Curt

WOW I dig those frame rails! That looks wicked!

The hard work you and your friend put in was worth it, that thing looks menacing the way it sits right now! Keep up with the fine work.

This belongs in the "fresh thinking" thread.

Way to think outside of the box! That's gonna be SICK!

Man the frame and chop look great. I like the concept of all the curves.

Crazy man!

I got the cab on frame and did a little mock up. Looking to see where I want my front axel. I hope to have the grill on soon. Wow I really like those wires.

Hey Bustedknuckle like to see pic's of the front with the grill in and some front axel with tires on from the front, the truck is going to be sick with all them crazy ideals you come up with the front suspension going to blow ever one mind and you havn't even told me about the back

Special thanks to my freinds, Rob (BIGBLOCK) and Wes (SMOKEWRENCH) for lots of support, ideas, and straight up slave lobor! LOL Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH one more thing ,these 3 old guys putting thing togeather, My grand kids love it!
P.S. Robert your not that old!!!!!!!!!!! ha.ha.

Grill

I mounted the grill today, I am not quit satisfied with how it looks. I thinking of modifing to look more like a 39. Bought my front air bags but cant get started yet ( still waiting on parts) 2 weeks. Well anyway here is some picks with the grill.

Curt

Wow , I like the grill. It really makes the truck look mean. Maybe bring it in a little on the ends?? Take one rail out per side? It may make it look a little more sleek. But I do like the way it is looking now.

Wicked build Busted that frame is bad

wow! those frame rails are impressive! thank you for raising the bar. good work and the the chop looks just right with those sick frame rails.
