Ok so a start on the wheel tubs, the main hoop is in 1" low and the cut will happen next week on the roof. The Procharger and alternator ar mocked up. I will get another pic of the clearance issue on the front of the radiator and post that.

Rodger,

What is a ballpark on the hours to final weld a chassis of that magnitude! Looks Killer!

I could have the chassis welded and set on the ground in about 60 hours, but We need to install the tubs before we weld the rear solid. I hope to set it on the ground in the next few weeks.

Last we heard from Rodger on another thread (John's Nova) that they were going to need to focus on the Truck and the Nova to ensure they had them ready in time for their shows. Sounds like they are in Thrash:30.

and just as I posted this - I saw Rodger's light come on.
