-
rear end is done
-
bitch, i mean baller, sorry ;D looking good buddy
i think your welder needs some more practice............
j/k that is sick
-
That's some serious sheezy right there man. This thread is all about excess. Are you planning on racing this thing? I could be your navi ;) or better yet, driver >:D.... Are you designing any of this yourself? Obviously you have a shop doing your welding. How 'bout the tube/framework? Any idea who you will get your fiberglass through?
-
thanks guys,probally wont race it I friend of mine designed the truck in a program called solid works it will have right about 30" of travel front and rear the frame is now gone and is a tube chassis with a bulkhead on the front to hold the front suspension in the middle of the truck and push the motor back (pics soon) the fiberglass looks like it might be coming from a guy named Mike Mcqueen he does custom one off bodys
-
That's my baller!! A one off body >:D
-
i was watching barret jackson like a month or 2 ago and one of jesse james's trophy trucks came accross the auction block...it was the one he raced in the baja 1000...well it only sold for 32,000 shoulda just went that route you coulda saved a ton of money
-
what's the fun is that!!!! A baller like 82, wouldn't be happy! O0
-
not really into a t/t Id rather have windows and a/c and interior and im so far into this thing i cant start over
-

Was this supplied for you , or are you paying for it too :sly:
-
dude, do you have "SUCKER" tattooed on your forehead? In the time you've spent, and the money, dicking around with this thing, you could have built 3 trucks! Pull all of your shit, put it on a trailer and call me, I'll send you to my boys, they'll do you right.
-
He won't do that.... I thought he was going to one of my boys..... ;D
-
as of now im not in the position to lose the down payment so im trying to get as much as i can out of him I have a couple of others shops in mind but Im questioning if I even want to do this build anymore its hard to keep throwing money at basically nothing this is all he has done in 11 months :thumbdown:
-
i dont know what im looking at but, it dont look like much :-\
maybe that shit will fall over on his pretty boat >:D
-
finally an update. The front suspension will be done in a week or so :thumbup: this is a copy of the bulkead/yframe
-
It is never to late to write a contract with performance timeline. Is it? This guy can read right? He understands being hauled into court, right???
-

funny you mention that. I told this guy I need a contract or Im going somewhere else. When the suspension is done ill be going there to go over this contract with him. I had to buy the whole fromt end just to pick up the pace a bit hopefully that helps. It should save him about 400-500 hours in R&D
-
If you need a shop full of pedejos to throw money at, I'll pm you the "Team Cold Beer Racing" address...
;D
-beerjet-
-
so the truck is at a new shop and going well so far. they should have the bottom 1/2 of the chassis done in 2-3 months
-

Nice Steve! :thumbup:
-
When it comes time to do the motor eric I would start thinking hybrid or straight up electric!
-
thanks for all the kind words guys ;D Ill admit I bit off more than I can chew with this project money wise. I could have built a house for what I have into this thing. Its taking longer than expected but I wont give up till its done. Im trying to use a lot of the parts I already had to get done sooner. I still have no completion date due to parts still needed.
-
I know how you feel... Ive been working on this old school sand car for a couple years and I'm already into it like 6K... Ugh... lol
-
So what is the name of the new shop? Are things going good?
-
So what is the name of the new shop? Are things going good?
new place is The GMR they are in your area and things are great with them :thumbup: :thumbup:
-
so the bottom should be done. Shit, I told you to go see my friend. HE BUILD LIKE 6 OR 8 TRUCK IN THE TIME YOU SPEND DICKING THE DOG!!! you can sell all your part and buy a buggy....lol
Rod and steve(2sav) can build projects faster then you... ;D
-
why did you buy an truck with stock frame etc if your going to build floor and up? i see you wasted time in the beginning by chopping it up.. I am fabricator for 8 years in race shops, and grew up family that races off road. I see how your time is extending on project..
Are you plan on race it or just for prerunner in desert?

Yeah its been going down in the business for me doing fabrication lately :banghead:
