Yep, definitely doing the mini tub and probably a wood bed.

PS.. It seems like Kyle always finds a way to get Lucy in most of the pictures..
Well Mark, we all know what happens to plans. The thing is you have to be ready to adapt to circumstances. It turns out that the need to make changes to get the desired ride height opened the door to do something else I wanted to do - get a wheel with a fat lip in the back.


And yeah, I did notice that Lucy somehow manages to sneak in.

Me too! Choosing colors and wheels are two of the toughest things for me to decide. I don't know why wheels are so tough because they're so easy to change, you know? Since Short Stuff is going to have those 13" black mofo Wilwood brakes all the way around, I don't want to hide them. With a six week lead time on wheels these days, I can't wait too long to get them ordered.

Is your mom from Wisconsin too? No more wheels outside, just a few doors and a bed.
One of the goals from the start was to have a really clean frame, and this is going to go a long way towards that. Kyle is one of those rare kind of individuals that can do anything he sets his mind to do, and do it at a high level. What's cool about him is he doesn't brag about it. I don't know how many times I've said to him "You can do that too?". Up till now, the only other thing that impressed me about paint and body guys was their ability to come up with excuses for why it's going to be another month before the job is finished.

No cheeseheads in our family tree that I know of.

I owe Justin props for his suggestions on this build. The smoothed in notches was his idea. He's done some high dollar builds, well north of the six figure mark, and he generously shares his time to learn about what you're trying to accomplish and then help you get there. Great resource to have involved in the build for sure.
