Re: Locomotive Lugnut

I used 16 ga. Sheetmetal for the floor, I ground all the welds flush, seam sealed the edges, epoxy primed it, Line-X took care of the rest.

Re: Locomotive Lugnut

Great looking truck in person! Hopefully the drive home was as uneventful as the ride there?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
