  1. Got some mock up photos. Steering column will be cut down quite a bit!

    Should have taken the level off...

    Does the engine look too high? This will give me 4" oil pan clearance. Are there any oil pans less than 7" deep(not high dollar custom built)?

  2. Hey rich, that looks pretty cool, how much are you planning on widening it?
     
  3. very cool looking, thats gonna be a nice ride
     
  4. Probably won't; we'll modify the steering box to tuck closer to the frame rail a-la Vern Tardel's book. And I'm gonna start binding my feet.:(

    How does 1 guy drinking beer for 8 hours and one working for 8 hours equal 16 man hours?
