Heres the low down on this project guys name is James Patterson hes a veteran of the  US Army, james was paralyzed from the waist down a few years back. Hes in love with minis as much as anyone, but because of his condition its hard for him to be able to get in and out of a truck. He came to us wanting us to build him a truck so he could get in and out easily and store his wheelchair in. After he left the shop we thought lets see what ideas we could come up with and see who all would want to be involved in this project, we always reach out a helping hand to people in need in the scene and think James isnt the only person in this situation that is craving to be able to drag with the rest of us. So all metal fab and the build of this truck will be done at Metal worx inc here in hopemills north carolina, what we are asking is for anyone to Help out other shops, dealers, Big companys anything from air ride, audio video,rims and tires to pitch in and Help with this. Your name or business will be Promoted through out the whole project . SO anyone wanting to Help this project out let us know!!
 

I may have a few extra fittings and I think I got 25' of 1/2 and 3/8 air line. I know its not much but hell it will help.
