Re: Mikes long wheel base challenge truck build :)
Next step is seam weld the bumper on and straighten it, and make it stronger, then clean all the stone chip of the chasis, mod the rear shock mounts.
Then I will turn my attention to the cab, then bed, then towards a rolling chassis
I've got all the sound deadening out of the white floor pan too took ages !!
Going to have some days off to move forward with this thing

I cheated
Got bags of ice and left it there, then just chips away really easy once it's cold
Used to do it on skylines
Got the day of Friday to get it blasted !! Finerly !!

Re: Mikes long wheel base challenge truck build :)
Got a day off tomorrow
Got a plan together of how to attack this, should be nice and quick
Won't be as neat as my red truck, but this will be used in competition so doesn't need to look pretty, just needs to work
