mad scientist, your a beast. cant wait to see how you set up the tank
Good job man... makes me wish I took more usefull pics...lol
What did you use to cut the spare wheel well with? A plasma cutter?
What lines are you using to run the fuel? I would assume you would have to extend the lines correct?
Are the channels in your crossmember threaded for the bolts to hold the cradle on, or did you weld on a nut onto the channel?

The cross members will be fully welded to the frame rails. The back one was easy the front one was not. I don't know about the exhaust haven't installed it yet.

Its sitting so high cause there is no engine or trans in it .
Why do you think I would want to sell it?
I wish I had more pics to put up, but the project is on hold due to economy sucking right now.
I was laid off the week of thanksgiving so moneys tight.
I want to paint the engine bay before I drop the engine in.
So thats my next project on the car.

Sorry everybody, But unless somebody wants to sponsor me, it isn't getting any farther until I find a new job. I have too many other bills that are way more important.

you win some you lose some i guess.......but it couldnt have cost that much......to be honest or could it?
As of right now I have 10k in it as it sits. If you think I fail I DON'T CARE, just because its not finished DOES NOT mean it never will. Because you think I fail, I will never share pics of the finished product.

I said "At this point" doesn't mean it will never get done. All I do is state a fact and instead of everybody trying to pump me back up into trying to finish it you just want to talk crap.
