cool

glad ya decide to do a build thread[cl[P

till you posted the pics l was under the impression the starting point was a panel truck.

great work.


don't feel bad about doing it all your'eself, not very many people can, we all ain't chip foose:D

cool ride. shows vision for something different and unique. how many folks could see what it would turn out like and persevere.

some times ya have to think way out side the normal to get a awesome ride, l sure as heck do.

Later :cool:
 
Yeah, I mainly wanted to make sure the construction of the steering was done right, and that the brakes weren't done improperly.
