    sold the BONESHAKER couple years ago to the Tacoma area, figured I would see it driving at Hotrodarama but no dice, that is no filthy tractor seat, thats a civilized mans chair for the Harley Davidson 45" I still ride a bit, so no broke back for this kid

    Saw the boneshaker at a wrecking yard in Sumner, has a bunch of spider webs and iron crosses on it now. Since this one has no doors I'll "swing" in and grab those nickel plated hinges you owe me. Oh and thanks for the T-bucket, I'm gonna hook up some suspenders and where it for Halloween.

    I only post when I'm sober.... Your not putting anything behind the seat are ya? I got a tombstone fuel tank you could mount out back, or wear it as a back pack.
    nice pumper, get tired of draggin hose?

    I like the idea of the backpack fuel tank...Explain that to the cops. Show me more pics of prison boy IN the car. If you build it we'll let him go!!!

    I figured out a basic formula for 1" square and round tubing, I use 2 benders together, one a cheap pipe bender (the 80$ one) and die tubing bender, the one speedway used to sell but now has their own version. I scribe 1" marks on my pipe and number them, then put em in the bender and count how many pumps by hand to the hydraulics, two or three is the magic number for me. I did the same thing in square to the BONESHAKER chassis, no cutting or distortion

    Strange, I just pulled this car out yesterday to play with it..... OK, so on sunday I went out to scarysville where Kmember lives, I was stealth as I was clearly getting away with something, I found a complete sprinter steering box on craigslist for 175. bucks, weird it was listed for six days and no bites..... Fellas, learn how to spell ratzrods when you list shit.... its perfect, turns 3 times one way, 3 times the other.... Halibrand. To answer some questions its a 250 chev motor with 3 speed, came out of a sex molesters van, I had to scrap it fast before I was caught... ok I cut the belly pan structure back off and made it deeper and more squarey, now has a tiny little flip windshield, the kind lots of people look for... if I focus a little I might be able to get it done for this years super secret pokerrun where only bearded men are invited, sorry Dug
