Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks

that's awesome. purely awesome. There is so much weld porn in this thread, it makes me happy.

As for John, I don't know him personally or anything, just admire his kick ass wheels. I wish i could afford a set of his recentered H1's for my crawler. Tell him i would be glad to advertise for him if he'd cut me a deal!

I really dont have that much tallent i just try to work hard and learn off of what has worked (and what hasnt) on others builds and put my touch in along the way. When i go work on my truck i have the opinion that as long as when i go outside to work on it it looks different when i go back in then im making progress and going in the right direction.

Thanks again so much for all the support and criticism if anybody is ever in southern new mexico please dont hesitate to P.M. me so we can get together and go blast around!

Oh i forgot, only as long as you pay for the alcohol/ methanol which i think was right around 18 dollars a gallon when i left.
You're doing better than I am at 25! What do you do for work?

Haha thanks man, well this past may i just finished up getting my masters in cellular and molecular biochemistry. In june got hired on as a bio chemist at a cheese factory then once monster came through as a title sponsor in august i started working on the truck full time. I have recieved early acceptance to a few medical schools but to be honest i think i want to build race blown monster trucks, tube frame chassis, or ultra 4 koh style buggies. My wife likes plan a better and do the trucks in my free time haha.
