Nice crossmembers:D
Whats the story with the roof?
It looks a bit different.
It looks just like the one Brandon (Im4yotas) just put on his hendrix chassis:confused:

That looks like the "Aaron Roof", just a little changeup.
Looks great Mike, keep the pics flowing:smokin:

this one was custom built by Bender himself as a special "K" chassis for Mike.

It does okay. The cage is too wide. Originaly I built the tube bed to follow the same shape as the cab. Once I decided to lose the cab and go all tube, it's too wide. It may end up getting all chopped off and become an F-toy.

Ya, you can tell that we have one set of dimple dies that we pass around:shaking:
Actually, Mikes front x-member was the prototype of one that was cut out on a cnc plasma cutter. Mike snagged it and welded it to his chasis before anyone knew :D.

Nobody listens to me, I thought the rear crossmember should be made out of solid 3x4 bar. Forget about all this light weight stuff...

Didn't mean to say that anyone copied me. I don't remember for sure now, but I think I "borrowed" it from something I saw on the BTF site.

Yeh that roof seems pretty popular these days
I started mine about six months ago and the roof was the first thing done
started on it again when i got springs,shackles,axles.
It's coming together now, I'm just lacking a few things
(Steering box, second tcase, and bits and pieces)

Mike was building his F-Toy at the same time JR's Bronco was being built at Dalton Fabrication...:)
