The Dakota bumpers almost look like they were made for the old Binder..
Where's the radiator on this thing?
Did I miss some thing. Looking good.

I wasn't able to use your trans cross member design

I ended up moving the engine back 13" from the original position.

I did put it in the damn good idea file.
Thanks.

We were making radiator mounting brackets at the time the pic was taken.
Maybe you can use it on your next project.

what a beauty! [cl[cl[cl

I dont like the taillights either, why spend hours on an otherwise perfect and thoughtful build and pop on harbor freight trailer lights? I am not being derogatory, I just dont understand.

Gulp. I did that, because I hadn't decided which of the dozen lights in my bin I wanted to use. I guess I best get that taken care of.

Really, its temporary....

well I get the appeal, old lights usually need rewired and mounted, and the trailer lights have stud mounts and new sockets and bulbs. I guess I didnt think of it as a temporary thing because they usually stay on for years.
