Those are stock. I only built the one on the link bar.

Damn dude, you seriously threw that thing together quick. Pretty impressive work, now all you need is a really big shop and a good cnc bender.

Fucka CNC bender. I just want a shop and a mill/lathe. Lol.

I still gotta do the front end and the bed though. Hopefully it wont take too long.

do what I did and go to some industrial auctions and sales. I picked up my 8ft lathe and a milling machine for 1500 for the pair. LOL, now I gotta build the garage around em soon.

That mazda front should be pretty close to the toyota, it shouldn't take you that long to do.

Nah, I'm thinking a few days at the most. The bed is gonna be a pain I'm thinking.

how did you paint that? did you just rattle can that or did you use a gun? it looks pretty good either way.

Its rattled on. I wanted to get some chassis black, and some generic gloss red and spray it with the gun, but he didn't want to pay the $30 difference in cost. I can get paint at cost, rattle can I have to buy at $5 a can. So not worth it. There was like $40 worth of rattle can paint there, and I used it all. It would have cost $70 to get enough to do the frame twice over. Then I could have done the front arms too.

thats sucks, you should tell him that. lol. it looks like it came out pretty good. the only thing i dont like about rattle canning stuff is that it fades pretty quick and it chips and gets nicks in it really easy. i bet he'll be repainting all that within a year.
