biggy's new ride

[nc854runner]

When he said copper he means shiney copper like a brand new penny. It looks good the man has some mad fab skills. I can't wait to see it rolling.

 

[bigassedredjeep]

got it rolling yesterday, motor/trans going in tonight

 

[bigassedredjeep]

shoehorn?

 

[farmboy]

Nice tight fit! The color is growing on me.

 

[Aggressive1]

Not me...but I'll wait to judge when he gets some skins on. I didn't like Patrick or Andy's chassis when they got back from powder coat, but man when the skins were on, they both look sweet. No pressure Brandon

I really like how low it sits. Totally different center of gravity that that CJ was for sure. Can't see the bottom of the shocks...is that ride hight or you have the shocks bottomed out to get the motor in? What's the belly pan height?

 

[bigassedredjeep]

that's with the shocks bottomed out, i need to find a source to fill them...

the belly height is about 19" now, should be around 23-24 when its done.(same as the CJ, but overall height is 1' lower)

 

[BIGWOODY]

i need to find a source to fill them...

[Aggressive1]

Looking really good Brandon. That dash looks badass. One of a kind.

 

[zubz]

Looks great Brandon. I really like the look of the dash.

Are you going to completely cover the tunnel or leave it open??

 

[bigassedredjeep]

it'll be covered, just need to get the plumbing done first.

 

[farmboy]

Heck yea brandon! Got my plumbing done yersterday so you got some catch up haha. Test run by thanksgiving maybe? I want to see yours up close.

 

[highrollingtj]

The build is incredible. Keep it up, you are almost there.

 

[rockmafia]

You ready to test it out yet?

 

[bigassedredjeep]

not quite yet, I've got to get my ass in gear and tie up some loose ends with the plumbing/wiring and make some driveshafts...

harness and computer should be on its way back from Jims.

 

[bigassedredjeep]

carried it to Toys 4 Tots this weekend, still not running

[rattlecanpaint]

Nice dashboard! Seriously the rest of it look GREAT!

 

[336wheeler]

That's looking really awesome man. However, when you trailer it... just make sure that sign isn't visible, because you can get a nasty ticket for stolen signs. It's so low! I love it.

 

[SPOA87YJ]

That is Awesome, you should paint the sign black with copper letters to match the rest of the rig.
