Well done! Good craftsmanship is evident even in the video. What is left to get it street legal now?

How to go, Gold. A big milestone.

Rolling art is a lot better than static art. Way to go Gold.

a few pictures

Its so much easier to move around under its own power! And don't worry, I put a few more lug nuts on. I need to go buy acorn nuts though, these ones look silly.

update

Took out the suspension build spacer blocks and it is on the air bags now! works pretty good. Seems nice and suple. Cleaned off the masking tape I had on the steering column and gage cluster, fixed a brake leak, mounted the steering column and bolted the top of rear shocks. So far I am happy with the brakes. I need to adjust the four link. differential needs to tip the pinion down a bit. no big deal.

I need to mount the fuel tank next. the gerry can is a little risky.the front leaf spring needs a bit of hardware. Seems I lost it over the years.

When you think you're done you'll only have a couple dozen loose ends to fix. Lookin' real good Gold. You should be proud of what you created.
