Well at the end of day 2 this is what we have for prototype #2. I'm still waiting on some rear frame parts so we can assemble the rear and see about the getting it into one piece. We also need to cut one of our latest front crossmembers to go in the chassis. Then time for test and fit up under a 65 Chevelle we have lined up. I will explain some of the details soon but enjoy these for now.

I'm really happy with the outcome so far and pretty excited about advancement we have made in our knowledge and skill to be further used on upcoming models.

I hate to bring up old stuff, but I remember when you brought up the thought of doing these chassis's. Everyone, well not everyone, but alot of guys were fussing about how you cannot build a chassis with out a jig. The were yapping about "squaring up this" and "not without a jig table that!!" Now your chassis's are the talk of the site. I commend you on such an exceptional product. I followed your 57 frame build and loved it the whole way. These frames are ahead of their time. I have no idea of how to build a chassis with a jig or without one, but again I give props were props are do. You have a beautiful lineup of frames.

That trans X member/exhaust cutout is really well done. I'm pretty impressed.

Well guys we were slowed up with a huge order at the laser cutter when their machine went down for a few days. Well we got most of the parts last week and put in some extra time on Saturday to get it a little further. Scottsdale is coming up quickly. The rear rails and crossmembers are coming along nicely.

This is the front frame section. Does this look strong enough....
