D5.0 back in the works

Postby Maxxheadroom » Mon Nov 08, 2010 3:47 pm

Well its been a long time since I have done anything to the truck, and it's time to get rockin! Pulled the grill bumper and left inner fender last night, next will be framing out the front end with 1"x1" square tube which will allow more room for exhaust and cooling system. If I was committed before I certainly am now...

This is the truck before I got crackin

Another sawzall job. Don't think im picking on you Jason. Nobody ever finishes these trucks. They end up becoming a wasted truck once you hit it with a sawzall. Show us you can finish it!

lol, I understand your point of view, and you will be happy to know I have started fab work with 1x1 square tube, hoping to have it frames out early next year!
