We actually call this one "Mr. Crabs" in the shop..... because the piece that gets cut out of the sheet before we press brake and form it looks like a crab (kind of). LOL

Besides, we are trying to get away from the kitchen utensil stigma.

New DM looks killer Nate! My next project will have one... Maybe an F100 DM
The F100 kit should be done soon, along with our 47-55 first series kit for the AD trucks.

As if things weren't busy enough around here.

We are working on a solution for this as well... if you received one of our kits a few months ago or previous.

Have you purchased your kit yet? I ask because we changed things up a little on the 55-59 kits a couple months back that make exhaust and steering linkage a bit easier to negotiate.

Not an LS motor pictured.... but thought I would post it anyways.

Getting in line this week. Mine will be the one with coilovers instead of air. Do you know a set of headers that will fit with a LS motor?
