Nice. Looks plenty beefy.

i liked the car when it was green

randomtask · 12-31-2005, 07:59 PM

you should get that seat re-upholstered in vinyl so it looks halfway decent and is cleanable...

JustinL · 12-31-2005, 11:30 PM

random, im thinking more along the lines of new suspension seats

i think i am going to paint it white with red flames..... its getting either flames or the racing stripes again

Torx · 01-24-2006, 02:36 PM

actually, its a canvas drop cloth. i needed to cover the seat real quick, so i put a 2x4 on the back, wrapped the drop cloth over it, and then stapled it

Front fell off

The front bumper is welded on. I need to take a bunch of measurements before I start to narrow the front end. Maybe ill cut into the sheet metal this weekend.

I now have the radiator out and am about to cut out the inner fenders etc.

Jishory · 05-19-2006, 02:05 PM

looks like alot of work

JustinL · 05-20-2006, 05:40 PM

i have the front hinge made one the driver side. Now i have to build the same thing on the pass side, tie them together, cut the fenders, fit the grill together, put the trimmed hood on, and ill be done. the rear should be MUCH easier

basketofkittens · 05-20-2006, 06:30 PM

Summer vacation ftw?

JustinL · 05-21-2006, 07:06 PM

front minus ~11 inches

Tilt steering

JustinL · 05-22-2006, 08:09 PM

Tonights Work: I still need to do some reshaping of the grill opening and grind all of the welds smooth.

for comparison

Torx · 05-27-2006, 01:16 PM

i dont know shit about 4x4, why are you narrowing the front?
clearance for bigger tires?

JustinL · 05-29-2006, 05:38 PM

clearance and its easier to see where your tires are going when you are looking at the rocks
