Hopefully 2017 will be so much better year !

Great OOB build, looking forward to next posts of the modded one! :-)

What a finish! Great job!

Thanks for following along and commenting Kari and Tom!

There is something missing, Joe. Let's see
1. big tires...got those.
2 big mill... got that
3 really short wheel base...Bingo, have that.
4. Long @$$ wheelie bars... Hmmmmmmm

Honestly I was going to install them but these wouldn't have looked so good so I opted not to install them vs. going too far from the OOB them. I already kinda busted that rule but didn't want to push it any further.

Thanks for the good word Paul.

Oh man, that thing is a SCREAM! LOL! What a magnificently sensational little model! I love it! Man, I can't wait to see the modded one get finished.

Here's hoping 2017 sees you and your wife in full health and prosperity. I hope to see many more incredible models from your workbench.

Thanks Mark! Believe me, I'm going to be going super slow on the modded bus. I definitely don't want to screw that one up!

I don't blame you. I've been doing the same thing with my last five vehicles. Gotta make them look good!

Rock on my friend!

LOL! Patience is key with stuff like this alright.

Moving ahead with gathering parts for the engine and trying to figure out a suitable seating arrangement. Still working on the seating but have gathered some of the parts I'll need for the engine / turbo lubrication and fuel delivery.

Most of what I'll need is here but still have some other items in bound.

a little closer look at the 90 degree anodized fittings :



and the straight anodized fittings:

Those are some sweet looking fittings!
