Re: off it goes

Wow. I don't know if I should go work on one of my trucks after looking at this or just burn them where they sit.

Trust me, if you know "anything" about metal work, that is a piece of art built by a true artiste.

Re: off it goes

The work is so good it'd almost be a shame to paint it. I'd be tempted to clear it as-is.

Re: off it goes

I have a question about the breather tube going into the inner fender idea... wouldnt this cause all the road grime dust and mud etc to get thrown into the motor?

Re: off it goes

For starters it'll be a cold day in hell before I get mud on the inner fenders, lol. It's going to run into a compartment that is going to bring air from the front of the truck....

Re: off it goes

Lol ok, I was wondering. I didnt quite see the pocket from the other side of the inner fender if the compartment is already there.

Re: off it goes

Great idea for the tailgate cables! I assume you will be putting one on the driver side aswell. Are the cables off of a newer Chevy truck?

Thanks man...it's a long slow process, the fabrication work just takes so much time but the end result will be mind blowing when it's done
