    Please tell me what is going on with the front of that frame. Is it bent upwards?

    A while ago bob mentioned pie-cutting the frame for a kinda sweeping step-up. Better get the real info from the source. I'm just a no talent hack that reads this board too much.

  6. Stopped by the shop during the build and Tuck was running on adrenelin since he had to drop off a trailer back in Kanada... [​IMG]!!

    The rest of the crew were "g***ed" from lack of sleep..., but there were plenty of smiles as the thing came together....!!!!!

    Awesome job..., and congratulations on the build...!

    Paul,

    Thats my dog...Carmel, aka Sharkie the shop dog... its a traditional low rider Welsch Corgi... You wouldnt believe how many times people asked me if it was a lowrider haha... we've had those dogs in our family for years, since they came over on "the boat"....

    Everything here is built to plow snow...

    I'm half asleep in that pic, my eyes are closed and I have pillow hair... thats what it looked like Sunday EARLY morning before we left.
     
  16. That dog is low. Shes Cool, follows him everywhere. Im telling him he needs one more dog. Im trying to set him up with a big monster Bulldog.

    Evel, good to hear you made it home. Your eyes were looking rough that last night(Morning). It was great hanging out with you...

    Bob, you ruled. Thanks for given me a place to stay too. Your house is awesome. I could look at all your collections of stuff in there forever.. Let me know if your dog ever needs anymore vitamins too.

    DANGER! DANGER!

    Holy ****, what a week. It was AWSOME. You guys are the coolest. The Huskies miss you guys.......

    A few months ago when I was in California, Evel wanted me to do some tech stuff for MFS.
    I thought it would be better for him to come to WI and I could work in my own shop.

    There were tons of cars we could have did this piece with as there is alot of stuff going together at the shop right now.
    Tuck and I had been talking about thrashing his roadster together and I figured it would be perfect for MFS.

    It would be a cooler story with the two of us building it, and it would get Tuck some of the recognition he deserves...... He is a talented Mother****er.

    This whole week turned out way cooler than I thought. I laughed more in the last week than I have in years..... The origional idea was for us to build the car as you see it in a week, then it was 4 days. Due to hangovers and lack of sleep it ended up being three.

    ACEHOLES will soon rule the world.
    I can not wait for this car to be on the road.
    TERROR.

    Here's Tucks roadster with the rest of the family.

    This is the "Bleed Sweep" I think it works out pretty good.

    The kick up ended up being 14 inches. We used super short rear wishbones for clearence. We will add trianglated upper bars so it will be a fourbar set up using the split bones for the bottom bars. Hopefully it will work.

    I think it will once we get it sorted out.
