FAST Fabrication 94 b4000 turn into SNORE class 7 race truck build thread

[FAST Fabrication]

Here is the 97 limited I got for myself (notice front bumper), and the 2000 sport for the motor and to part out… Don’t have a picture of Dads Durango, but it was only front and rear damage so guessing end over end.

We have had these frame horns done for awhile, waiting on a new dimple die to complete them

Some of my new goodies

wow so I just had the coolest thing happen, I spent the last hour talking with an editor. One of my sponsors is having an article made about me and I am assuming their product to, I do not know. I do not have the details as to where it will be yet, it gets turned in on monday for editing. He is sending me more questions to answer in an email and I have to send him a bunch of pictures. It was pretty cool, I will leave which sponsor it is un named until it is published.



On another note I picked up all the goodies from JBA, we also got headers for the f-350 which we are doing up right now, painting it the same color and putting our sponsors product on it. So tomorrow I will post pictures of that, the radios, and hopefully the dashes.



On the Team and FAST Fabrication side, we decided to outsource the website should be up and running by March 4th, hope you all check it out. I am also giving this other person a shot at a new truck rendering (maybe two tone) and a new pit crew team shirt....



Lots of things are happening, I meet with another prospective sponsor on Tuesday, space on the truck is running out lol...



The new look as well as the whole new marketing side of the Team is getting a make over and should be all done by end of March.



Oh and we will be at BAP pitting for a fellow 7200 racer, trying out our new radios... May even bring the truck to put it on display and most importantly let tech look at it.



Alright hope everyone has a good presidents day weekend, this weekend 7 years ago changed my life forever...Now I can finally say for the better!

here are the radios, thank you to Icom

going to take them to pci have them do their magic and pick up an intercom



here is the headers, cables, flow through mufflers, and exhaust pipe from jba for the race truck

these headers are for the tow rig f350 460, they are actually made by dougs headers: Pertronix owns them all now including patriot headers and a few other companies

both header sets are seramic coated



going to try and finish bumper this weekend and pick up aluminum when i go back

Gotta love the tilt, if I ever move to snow country ill put sheetmetal over the pipe and snow plow for extra money 

So in order to check threats concern about swinger and bypass at full droop full left we had some fun

 

[FAST Fabrication]

Before lock

At lock different angles, swinger actually a little in front and away from bypass

Plenty of room on the tie rods and shock mounts

Started on skid plate part of bumper

Got resi’s mounted for bypass

All I can say is AMAZING!!!! I love it!

The gussets and tabs on bumper, skid plate mounting is all that is left to do, resi’s mounted
