Re: Z frames and shaved handles

Need some more pics if you got the chance. You know of any kits you don't have to fab yourself for the forward tilt hood?

Re: Z frames and shaved handles

Hey LOWRIDE,
AWESOME project! I dig the front inner fenders . . . clean looking and VERY functional! You did a great job with the tube rear crossmember also. Looking forward to seeing your progress. I think you might start a new trend in N.Z.!
Later,
Mark

Any more progress. I pm'd you w/ a question bout the steering after zing the frame. Your setup is very similar to what i'm after. Gorgeous truck so far, anxious to see it all together.
