Re: Twin Turbo '66

Quick little update and photo dumb on the Truck. Haven't made whole lot of progress as we were waiting to figure out what and who to do the roll cage. Whether we want to do it and take a little longer but save some cash. Or take it to the local chassis shop and have them do it quicker but pay a good amount more.

We ended up deciding we are going to try it out and do it ourselves. My uncle is a good fabricator and welder and has always wanted to try it and see if he has the skills to do so. So im giving him the opportunity too.

First off we knew we needed to fix the frame from previous owner where they cut out the frame and just straight destroyed the front crossmember. So we cut that out, and then started patching up the frame cut outs. As well as we are going to box the frame in that area just for some extra strength, as well as were put in a chromoly bar for the new "Crossmember".
