Chassis Update

I have been taking my time doing chassis projects because I want to make sure that I do them correctly. I have since reassembled the frame and purchased a new repop gas tank. They are pretty nice I have to admit. I plan on running the fuel pump externally and have started to run the brake lines and air lines for the rear bags.



Here you can see the frame, with the repainted steering column and the relocated front shocks. I will have them done and welded on soon. Also, there is a 49 merc dash that I plan on building for it as well. One piece at a time right?

Like a new man

Have you ever felt that way...something happens and you get a renewed feeling. Inspiration and possibility abound..well. In my distorted little world getting my frame blasted did that. For the first time, everything is clean. The guy did a really nice job and now I got a bug to get everything cleaned. He sprayed it with a thick black epoxy primer and off I go.
