DOH! I knew it. Just didn't post in time. Can wait to see some updates. I need some inspiration to modivate my own builds. So much to do I have no idea where to start.

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
Don't you guys realize that Russ is trying to make this truck look like Wonder Womans invisible plane and from what I can see he has nailed almost all of it all he has to do now is the cab and rims. Russ I love it way to think outside the box.

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
love the back of the frame. thats some lowrider framework. This is gonna be a cool build

Dairyland Trucker 10-11-2012 08:08 PM

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
Russ that is the best way to have a build is flat out and always flat broke other wise it wouldn't get done...

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
Dang Russ, whatever happened to this project? Guess I missed a lot of the updates, in between all the sarcasm being thrown around in the replies, but now that I've seen the custom rear frame, with the low riding axles, I'm wondering how this turned out.

hippy 12-04-2012 05:48 PM

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
dude, it's going to be a sweet ride!


is it done yet? lol.

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
Russ, what's the max length frame you can mill out, without reclamping? Are you still running the CNC Sherline?

Re: "FLAT OUT & FLAT BROKE"
 
Nice! I'd say you've got the programming down pat. That chassis looks really sweet.
