Im on graveyard this week so once I got my nap in I went in the garage and made this thing a rolling chassis! It rolled about a Foot for the first time :metal::metal: It was dark out by the time I measured 40 + times. So tomorrow I will roll it out and get a picture!

Haha well I'm just a 26 year old building the truck for a guy I met on Facebook.
So he is helping me pay for diapers if you want to think about it like that : )

Trying to decide what I want to focus on next. Thinking about building the mounts for the bed and getting a sub floor in.

Thanks man! really digging your truck build! I really want to build a non patina truck so I can do some body mods I have in mind.

Started building the sub floor for the bed! Got the front mounts welded to the cross bar and started working on the bars that will run front to the back. At this point I'm planning on having the wood floor tilt from the side. (don't mind my mess corner in the Garage)

You do great work !Looks amazing! What's the back spacing on the 24x12's and what was the magic # on the rear end to squeeze all that awesomeness between the bedsides?

Thanks man!

The back spacing is 4.25 and when I ordered the rear end we used 54 inches wheel face to wheel face. its pretty tight when aired out but I really didn't want the wheels to look like the were sucked way in.
