Looking good Joe! Nice work!
Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish. The product of a demented hill billy who has found a way to live out where the winds blow. To sleep late, have fun, drink whiskey, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love or getting arrested.    H.S. Thompson

 More tube work



This shot shows all the tubes that intersect above the drivers head. I will be adding more triangulation all over the place too.

Not sure yet. We have a set of fairly big wilwood four piston calipers for the rear. Probably something similar up front.

A little progress on bridging the dash area to the windshield and a few more bars in the cage. Waiting on parts to fab the front suspension.
