Hey vile - that sure is awesome work!

Quick question, did you cut and replace the firewall or did the template go over the original?

I cut pretty much everything up but the original structure is partially there as a skeleton. The rest of it is fabricated. There's pics a few pages back

If that's a 'sweating bullets' reference I'm even more impressed. ;D
The before pictures are so awesome I can't imagine what the after pictures are going to look like.

When did that happen?

Here's a quick pic. Cab is all in primer again ready to be blocked. I've got a few spots on the dash I'm going to weld up and smooth out then I should have the cab ready to be edged out. :D

Within the last 6 months or year. There was a mini tour with megadeath Metallica static x and slayer. That had to be amazing!


She's looking great Vile, you planning on pounding pavement with her this summer?
