Thanks !!!!


Did I mention how computer D-U-M I am?

very nice !!!

Tommy,

Can you enlighten a friend on how you got that picture to post?

I have other pictures but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to attach them on this site.

Sure, upload to photobucket like your other pictures, then when you bring your mouse over each picture there is a drop down box that appears. There are like 4 boxes that appear. Copy the image code from the bottom box on photobucket pictures, then paste that into the box here just as you would type a message. The image code looks like this

Good Luck! Sounds like a pretty cool project you've got goin' there. Tell us more about the motor, err engine.

TJ

You can preview your post before you send it to be sure the picture is on there as well

Thanks for the help Tommy !!!!!!

very nice build. What brand or make is the oil oil filter mount, I been looking for a heavy billet piece like that.

Peterson sells a mount that looks just like it.

Lem knows his stuff!!!!

It is a Peterson unit.

not a dump truck but it had 9 leafs per side when i started to build it

Nice lookin engine,me likey

that will be killer in that old truck

It started out like this

And looks like this as of a couple weeks ago. Hoping to have it completed for the Turkey Rod Run in November. Probably won't have the Aluminum Dump Body done, but maybe the truck will be drivable.

That thing is going to be super bitchin! Nice imagination, I can't wait to see what it will look like in the end

I second that thought! I truly like the frame design

Thanks guys !!!!!

Here is a better look at the chassis, as I was designing/building it.

I better quit posting the truck pictures in this section before I get in trouble.

wow!!!!...thats gonna be one nasty dump truck

I posted more pictures in the "chassis" section. Thanks to all for the comments.

You do some original things Fatback. Honestly I wasn't expecting much from the title of the thread but your creation is very cool, and very unique!

I like it and I'm keeping an eye on the progress.

That may be the most original frame design I've ever seen.
