I can finally roll it around now. Still nowhere near being final, but it is getting closer every day.

:drool: so nice
Making a bit more progress on the chassis. It is actually starting to look like a tube chassis rather than a strange box with

I have officially gotten 100% usage out of this cutting wheel I would say:

Thanks to all at the swap meet at...
weather.com says it is going to be 67 with a mere 20% chance of rain. So, if you skip out because of weather, you are skipping out because of NICE weather. My truck is loaded up, will be there for...
1. isonic (Paul) from 11-12
2. MisdemeanorMatt (Bruce Willis) 12 - whenever
3. BimmerTim ( ) 2-3 or so
4. Dontknownuttin ( JonB ) whenever needed

Either would be fine. How much $ ?
That was the first thing I noticed as well. The wheel will be moved back so it lines on up center with where it was originally. I had to modify the mounts and they are just hobbled together to test...
Cut cut cut cut, test fit cut test fit cut test. Cut cut cut test fit cut test. So on and so forth:

I have a LONG way to go before I get to that point. Right now it is all about measuring, test fitting, and tack welding. Once I have the chassis roughed in, the body will come off again and it will...
Got the roll bar cut and widened and back in place:

Also cut out the rust tubes and welded in some new steel...
Dang, I will be in Chicago on the 20th. :(
The chassis is setup for type1 beam, so I have to do that regardless. And yeah, it will not be an "in and out" sort of car. It will never be used to run down to the store to pick up a quick item or...
I also have one available if needed. But I am likely as far away as possible.
Got a fair amount done today. All VERY rough mockup type stuff. Major cutting, major hacking. But, I did manage to get the body over the top of the new chassis.
rollable:...
I am at least going to do rough mock-ups with the stock stuff. That is, get the wheels in place, get the body on and what not. It will likely not be the final setup, but for now, it is available,...

Got the old beams off the old chassis. Dragged them over to play around with mock-ups.
the interwebs know all.

Appreciate it! Will let you know if nothing else comes up before then.
Just seeing if anyone here happens to have a cheap Audi 016 tranny laying around. Or even something else very similar. Playing around with layouts and brainstorming ideas for the new chassis. ...
