alright, i started cutting on the driver side and kept walking past the passenger side. the more i looked at it the more i was liking it so the plasma came back out. it turned out 100x better then before. i cut 4 more inches out of it too and raised it.

i cant decide what i want to do here.

thought about this but not sure how i feel about it.

probably going to end up cutting the corner off from the tube down and re working it

oh and here's the detroit.

and one from the river yesterday.

I even bought another ranger so I could have a fresh bed to cut up lol. Watching you do this is good motivation for me.

 

[disciplerocks]

i like it! and as for that corner piece id leave it and throw the reverse lights in that opening.

the more you do the back the more i think you need to tub the front out at least and make a fender lip like the rears

i like it the old way better...

it was going to be way to low for 4D's it was only an inch above the stock wheel well so it was going to cause problems

l8r, John

 

[Josh40601]

I'm really looking forward to seeing the front. You are leaving the lights and grille and stuff alone right? Or you making it skinny?

 

[86 slo-vo]

Haven't really decided yet, but I do know the head lights are right where I wanted to run toob through. I'll have to get a few hours in this weekend and come up with a few idea's
