car looks plain hot from all directions :)


Took 3" out of the wheel base, down to 124" now- tolerable.  gona order some 2" wheel spacers, should look awesome with 42' / 44"s, but tolerable with the KRTs.

its a full welded suspention roller, moved back over to its bay, shop cleaned, matts on the table.  Lift bay open for stupid jeeps  ::)

jeff showed me some pics.   buggy is looking good!

124" WB on 42 or 44 would be perfect.   low and long.

mounted a winch last night

cut 5" out of the ass of the chassis, re mounted bumps and rear track bar.  2 square tubes need to be rerun for rear driveshaft home, but she is good and i am happy with the wheelbase and stance.
