All I wanna know is where are ya gonna haul stuff at?:lol:

j/k Scott. It's coming together nicely.

Keep us updated on pics!!! You know Joe will bug you if you don't!:devil:

On a serious note, when you get the frame finished will the front crossmember/LCA's be on the ground aired out? Or are you going to set it up with a "safety factor" just in case? Also diggin that 9". Can't wait to see it in person next summer.

:lol: Thanks Joe, actually about to try and start the ol camaro here in a bit, so if you hear a loud boom at your house you know what it was ;) :lol:



Thanks Tim, ya the only hauling in this one after its done will be foldup chairs :lol:
CA's are sitting on the ground now might make a oh cheeit safty for it up front but ill get to that when it gets a little closer. Ya it should be lot farther by the time you swing out next summer, now that i said that Joe will hold me to it so i had better huh :lol: :lol:

I found one of them on a site about a year or so ago and cannot find it now. What a great way to be different and get rid of a metric ton of weight. Looks good man

Re: project 62

Ha, you ain't tellin me nothing. Last winter when I re-installed my engine, one of my hinges decided to tweak and wouldn't shut. I removed them to install new ones and almost got killed by that titanic sized hood. Good times
