Something's wrong with that boy!
Look'n good Tim.[cl[P
tim what front axle did you use and what year is it? you do very nice work . thanks robertbandit mangum okla.
Good eye..I've got a chunk of 2" square tubing cut to go in there just for that purpose, just haven't got it tacked in yet..All looks good man. been lurking on your build but had a thought for you. On your brake pedal mount. You might want to brace to lower pivot point for the lever over to the master cylinder mount plate. as you pushe the rod towards the master it will try to force the pivot away from the master. a simple brace over to the master plate will take all of this load off the lower pivot mount. Just a thought as I like to over build stuff.
Cool..I am a little west of Inola and north of 412.. If you ever get out that way, holler at me..My brother lives in INOLA or just east side I should say close to 412. He's big into suzuki samurais. You see him once you will know it.
both of my older boys play high school basketball, one 9th grade, one varsity..so we have had game 4 or 5 night a week for the past month and a half..finally about over, so I'm hoping for a little more shop time soon..

Love the pole barn! I built those for a while. Just bought my 1st house and WAS planning on putting one in the backyard, but the wifey likes the idea of raising the roof on the current attached 2 car to 12', then splitting it in half so she has her own half, then letting me blow out the back wall and adding another 35x20 onto the back of the house so I'll have about 1000 sq ft to myself and she gets her own......250 [clJust a little shop update..They finished up yesterday afternoon..I starting hanging junk on the walls and moving a few tools last night.. It was still 100° at 10 pm, so I didn't get too motivated..Hope to get power out there in a few days, then get serious with the move..
I really like tunnel rams! I might just put one on mine if I ever come across one.I had to sit it on top for a visual too bad it's on a junk mock up motor instead of the good motor..gotta find some carbs,gonna try a pair of edelbrocks on it
I had a buddy of mine looking for an old set of headers I could cut up..I shoulda kept looking..he got this set with a truck he just bought, didn't realize til i got them home that they were 1.75" tube step headers..they should work great, but instead of being able to weld them into the flange, I had to cut the tubes about 1/2" out from the flange and butt weld the tubes..anyway pics. I cut out 16 gauge, took it to work and used the slip roll to roll in into something somewhat resembling a cone..first time to ever try to use it..definitely need more practice on that tool..I swear I didn't make my megaphones out of diamond plate, that 16 gauge was stored laying on top of a sheet of diamond plate
You SHOULDA made the exhaust out of diamond plate! Why the heck not?!
Congrats on the new rug rat!Snakefarm it was a 9 lb 12 oz boy,Chancie Allen
this thing is low budget all the way and I have never had so much fun working on a vehicle..
Mines a budget builder too! I have a total of $2500 into the entire thing, and my out of pocket is a lot less then that since I've traded some labor on motorcycle builds for big parts..... Like engines
Love the build!
Looks like Catia there?
Laser cut is an option too if you have access to one, or water jet.
That would definitely look better than square tubing =)
