well it has been hectic at the shop. got some projects in, and have been trying to get mine up to get painted.

here is the list of things done in the last 3 days. finished the front shackles, had to go with the 6 in shackles to get the flex i wanted. i might flip the front springs to shorten my wheel base, but i will see about doing that after i do some tube work to it.

comp cut the raer and raised my wheelwells up about 10 inches. made new inner fenderwells.

the rear has been moved back about 7 inches and i think i like it there.

i set the tbi 350 in and made motor mounts for it. i think the front fenders will come off and be replaced by a set of tube fenders i will be making.

enough of the chit chat, here are a couple pics
