"Superpile" here on the boards bought chassis #508, built it and sold it to "a guy in Charleston SC" but doesn't have any contact info. Does anyone know this person? I'd like to get contact info if possible.

No big deal just trying to keep tabs on these chassis'. Thinking of a "reunion" ride sometime this year. Monteagle?! "Ftoys in the Cove".

Where is monteagle?

I tried to reply to this the other day but the site was down.

It's West of Chattanooga about 50-60 miles. The big hill you go up and over between Nashville and Chatt, well Monteagle is on the top. The trails are actually closer to Tracy City but the exit is Monteagle. Last time up there the "Damn Locals" group showed us some bigtime hospitality with trail guides, food, and beverage. They even drug our broke ass rig back to the trailer. Load your camping gear onto the Ftoy and head down into the Cove for the weekend. Water falls, clean river water, no people around, good times. I'll check with the locals and find out what time would be good for them and post it up. Probably late Summer/ early Fall.

Here I am. My name is Troy from Beaufort, SC. I bought F-toy 508 from Superpile last fall and it's still holding down my shop floor. Going through the "Big D" so it kind of has things on hold at the moment. Pretty much got everything I need for it except for the nickle and dime junk, just lacking time. Here is a list of everything that I have for it and a run down of what the specs are going to be. Flame on you F-toy purest.

FU-508 (a.k.a. Formula Unlimited)(a.k.a. :flipoff2:)
-2 seater Ftoy
-IFS 4-Runner Frame
-355 TBI SBC
-2wd SM465
-Dodge Divorced NP205, twinsticked, 1410 everything
-2.5 Rockwells, welded, pinion brakes, hubs fliped out
-Full hydo steering with double ended ram
-Single triangulated 4 link F&R, 1.25 Cromo hiems top and bottom, 2.25 link tube top and bottom, coils F&R
-47" LTB's on Humvee Double bead locks(3/8" rock rings)
-Corbeau seats
-15gal aluminum fuel cell
-Aluminum double pass radiator
-F&R winches
-Beefing the frame as much as possible. Overkilling all bracing and mounting points.
-118"-120" Wheel base(Tires will hang out both ends of the chassis)
-Building it low as Rockwell thirds and V8 oil pan will allow

Sounds like a private park?
You tell me when and I will be there.

Trollporter I am in SC about 3 hours from you. Is there any wheeling in your area?

Holy cow! :eek: Take pics!

No flaming here. We're good with whatever you build as long as you don't chop up the chassis too much.:D

Last year the "Locals" were at the Sequatchie event spectating. If they are at the Dayton event i'll make sure all the Ftoys get introduced.

Dang Troy, you bought a F-toy to stick that stuff under?!!??

:D

If it makes you feel any better, the 39.5s have been chillin in my barn since the day I got home with em. My rigs together so till I got all the nickel and dime stuff I'm not tearin into it.

I too need to get down to that area and get a breath of some South Carolina air sometime this summer.

What's man. Been a long time. A few of my friends said they saw you at Tellico last year. They picked up the Ftoy for me the same weekend in Ashville. Be sure you have those 39.5's stacked. I've had tires flat spot like hell from standing up on a shop floor.

Just a quick update on F-Toy 508. Troy decided to go in a different direction and put 508 up for sale. He's a buddy of mine so he made me a good deal on the chassis and I picked it up last night. Formula Toy 508 is now in Ravenel S.C.(south of Charleston). The plan is to go ahead and rip the exo and cab off of my 90 standard cab Yota and install the chassis on my frame. Its not going to be comp legal because of my four link rear. Anyway just a quick update. Thanks Shawn

Have you forgotten this post?

We need to make it happen.
Not in October. Bike week/fall crawl and a rock race have me booked.

Any other F toys going to Harlan? That could be a reunion.
