Re: The Project Havoc....

Hey guys, Texan the exhaust is mounted with rubber bushings, you just do not see them in the pics, the way i have the engine set up there should be very little flex, we will see and i could be wrong. Anyways, i took yesterday off and went shopping with the wife, had a relaxing day i gues syou could say. so today i got up and made my way our to the shop. I finished up the rest of the welding, got my notches put in, my bumpstops installed, a few gussets in a couple spots, mounted the fuel tank and a few odds and ends. I do have one thing to say, The FRAME IS DONE!!!!!!

I have to sandblast it now and paint it. i am not gonna worry about making it too pretty right now, i just want to slap the truck back together for the year and run her. If i do not like how it handles or drives i will change it. My plan is to tear her apart next winter again and really detail it and paint her. so for now we are jsut gonna rat truck HAVOC. which is fine with me as i can them beat the hell out of her and enjoy her for the year.

Anyways on to some pics. not much just a few.

P.S. we picked a set of rims out, they are not the two above, we found something that we both loved, will let you know later. i phoned them today to order them and they are gonna get back to me on monday with pricing, have to ship from california. Any one want to deliver a set of tires for a wobbly pop or two and some B.S time. hehe

The last pic is of a truck that was my inspriartion, does anyone know whose it is, because i just love it.
