Welcome from Toledo. Looking good, can't wait to see where this goes. You should make a build thread.

Alot has changed since I've been on here but it is still not done! This is the year it will be completed. We are getting close to seeing if the motor will run, if so then we will put the axles back under her and make some drive shafts and get her weighed to figure out spring rate.
