LOL....the A team ..dig it !

67c10rustbuket · 03-01-2013, 02:31 PM

Lookin good! I really like the inner fish plates, should be much stronger than cut n butt alone. The Murocs look good to me

... Gold plated of course

Painter D · 03-03-2013, 12:04 AM

Coming along nicely

**67cheby** · 03-04-2013, 10:33 AM

here is the current progress...... Finally getting the frame actually mocked up !

**67cheby** · 03-04-2013, 10:35 AM

and the start of some boxing plates , all the front frame horns will be boxed and smoothed, the boxing plates will come back far enough to tie the front end nicely to the rear rails

Some great looking work there, Mike!

Zoomin · 03-04-2013, 10:46 AM

That looks like real work! How much fun was it to make sure everything is squared up?

I imagine. Well, A year from now you'll be working on the next project on a new table.

**67cheby** · 03-04-2013, 11:06 AM

LOL...yes i will build my own table for next years SEMA project ! My daughter wants a 60-66 !

**oldman3** · 03-04-2013, 11:15 AM

Mike, frame is really coming along, very nice work, looks great...Jim

Rusbuilt · 03-04-2013, 11:20 AM

Nice work Mike!

**lolife99** · 03-04-2013, 11:24 AM

Just one question,...
Your original plan was to cut off the bottom part of the frame.
Aren't these new rails in the exact location as the bottom of the old rails?
I guess you will be lowering the body mounts now?

i said " correct" but that isnt what i meant , no these rails arent in the same place , hence the raising or Zing of the front horns, but yes the body mounts will have to be moved also ! This body style K5 frame is a nightmare ! This has been quite a learning experience for me and i am sure i will learn alot more before i get it done !

LOL.....i dont even know, this frame is so stinking confusing i can even talk logically about it !

watahyahknow · 03-04-2013, 11:58 AM

now remember if things get too bad click the heels of youre red shoes and say theres no place like home theres no place like home ........ oh wait youre allready home and the frame is still there

thor · 03-04-2013, 01:02 PM

Nice work Mike! I know you've spent quite a bit of time blending the front rails to the custom rear, but do I get to start chanting, "Custom front rails, custom front rails"???

LOL...lets just say i know when i am in over my head and the compound angles on the front rails were too much for me ! they narrow and widen on each side of the crossmember, it is crazy !

**superflysteiny** · 03-04-2013, 01:09 PM

Nice job I love it

**screaminchevypickup** · 03-04-2013, 06:02 PM
