Here are a few close-ups I got before going to bed this morning. LOL!! These are the ones where the rain caused the surface rust. It'll all be sandblasted before it blown apart to get powdercoated.





Marcus,WOW!!!!!!! That chassis is amazing.Now I may have to start over on mine.

Did somebody say Alabama country boys?

Frame looks awesome! I heard about those guys a couple years back but have never made it over that way. Talented for sure.

I remember asking you about this on the truck forum & you told me you had something special in store for the chassis, but damn. All I can say is I know that chassis was like Lol. HRE sure can make a bad ass wheel too.

No way Scott, your's is too nice. I'm jealous of yours because you did you own work. I have not a single fab skill bone in my body.

Yeah, I like Alabama, but you guys drive too slow on those country back roads for me. I'm from the city where I'm used to doing 85 mph on the freeway. LOL!! You should take a trip up to their shop. It's only about an hour and a half from Birmingham. Straight up 65 North.

Yeah, I remember, but I didn't know it would be almost an eternity building, but I'm very pleased with it.

Well guys, dropped the chassis off at the shop today. Little did I know, my builder had already began cutting the trunk last Thursday and Friday since he knew I was going to go get it and bring it home. He only cut the rear wheel well's and some of the trunk until he got the chassis. He didn't want to cut too much, but was getting ahead.






Masi was asking about the rear exhaust, so I got a couple of shots of where the exhaust routes out of the back.

So Marcus, does your builder have a timeframe for completion? Do you have to repaint the car?
