Big Bertha Build thread x2

[buggy5872]

My progress slowed down since I am not under the gun to get it functional. I worked for months till 1 am every night and then back up at 5am to go to work. I would not suggest anyone tortre them selves like this. Anyhow....back to the progress. I had to make the running boards from scratch since the old ones were trashed and about four feet too short. Luck I have a friend that had a fabrication shop and we were able to bend up some that look pretty stock. The fender extension piece was very difficult to make. It bends in curves in 5 different directions and is only about 10" long. I had to completely hand form them with some clamps, various diameter rods for bending around and at one point bending them over my thigh to get the right shape. They turned out nice though.
