I was actually thinking the same thing, but I dont think black flames on an orange truck would be cool. Maybe I should have painted it Black with traditional colored orange and yellow flames.

I only painted it cause it didn't show up too well in allot of pictures. The last pics I took had the ocean in the background and it was cloudy out, so the body just kinda blended in. Also because its freaking winter for half of the year up here and white trucks dont show up too well in 3 feet of snow :D

Bones: Looks Stout. Do you have any close up pics of how you tied your sliders into the frame?

Holy fullsize PUmpKIN Batman!

Or JAMES and The Giant Peach after a big BOOOOONG hit or two...

Actually looks tight from the rear. The front exo scetch that you did looks good. I have never been a big fan of the /\ in the middle of the front windshield though.


Good Luck:cool:

I am hearing you about the /\ infront of the windshield. I like the way it looks but Im betting its a bitch to see around. I do need something there to share load though.

My sliders are welded to some 1/4" angle that I welded to the frame first, then the sliders to it.

maybe just some deep / \ gussets on the top and \ / bottom combined with the arc of the windshield contour will be sufficient. That way it would not be too obtrusive.

Just a thought...it is your cage though.
