Re: 48-54 long bed Chassis

I think Swizzlestick is probably closer than I will be because that was going to be my bid. So I'll have to say 12,250. I see a lot of man hours in that chassis and wish I was sticking it under my 48.

Re: 48-54 long bed Chassis

"fully tig welded" that's a lot of time.. I'm thinking 19,875.00, looks like a nice chassis you guys built.

Re: 48-54 long bed Chassis

When it's all said and done, I think that most of us would actually like to have a close idea of how many actual man hours are invested in that chassis. I see a lot of hours there when you break it down to the time in each component.
