Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
i was going to say that original backhalf certainly doens't look very strong, but then it was modified. the new version should hold up better and be less reliable on good welds. the old one would have self destructed if a weld broke.

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
That looks killer regardless of your age. Props for being a good fabricator at 20. You owe a lot of thanks to who ever taught you the trade...

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
thanks again guys... progress has been good got the tranny tunnel/driveshaft notch 1/2 done should be done this week. I'll post pics when its done.
Madiron- as for the old backhalf its long gone sorry. Jimmydean- the balkhalf idea was inspiared from XXL's and valleycustoms backhalf/frame, as well as i was going for a simple/clean look, yet some thing that looks good and was strong.

Re: [PROJECT] FnLow 69
gorgeous work, I love the backhalf, wish I had the time to do that. I'm 18 and gonna notch my truck at thanksgiving wen I'm home from skool. Already built everything else and got full airbags. Definately encouraging to see people about my age doing kick ass jobs at home, cuz no way in hell is a shop gonna do something that I could learn 2 do...
