So I've put off posting, build pics for some time. Not really one to blog or diary about builds. As this dude gets closer to driving I'm having the urge to get it done!!! I would like to thank the members of this club for the help with parts for this build (you guys know I'm a parts whore who's traded/ dealed his a$$ off. Cheap men, have cheap ways). THANKS CCB members! Here some pics from the start to now. July 4th of this year will be officially 2 years.
Now: 4-1/2", 1" body, full width 44 (Aussie lock), rear 60 spool, 37" cooper discover STT on 17" mods with GLO beadlocks, blah, blah, blah....

First glimps of the color... Didn't like it initially, could have been me getting high in the booth without a respirator. Hey that's what down draft booths are for!
