Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Got the frame started and squared up.
Notice the man cave has been turned into the Frame shop...    Hopefully it will be moving to my buddies shop to get finishing bracing. All Tig welded.

Re : Good Work !
I rarely see tubs on lowered trucks and of course , this means they either cannot be driven much or the truck rusts out in two years even here in " rust free " So. Cal. .
Few take the time you're displaying to think things out fully , your rig is a big inspiration to many DIY'ers .

Re: Project "Nether~Storm" 72 swb
Nate I have to agree with you on the trucks that dont use tubs of some kind. To much road grime and water gets where you donjt want it. I wanted mine to have the ability to be daily driven but also have the style under the hood allowing you to see the suspension work and keep my engine bay dry.
Thank you for the complement. And Mike I appreciate your comment on my use of space. lol. Ive made one heck of a mess in there, but all of it is well worth it.
