Thanks George.

I can go from zero to 5 degrees adjustment.

Thanks Kerry.

I would say its alot of fun working the stainless but its such a pain from the warping and twisting that I would be full of baloney.

Thanks Gil.

The main reason for stainless is that frame paint gets chipped and beat up so bad. I like the idea of nearly maintenance free metal.

You're quite the fabricator Pugsy. What do you do for a living?

I'm a stainless steel sheet metal fabricator.
We make restaurant equipment and any custom stuff that comes along.

Been at it for a while now.......

I've been making some progress on the exhaust system.
After this, I will try to figure out the rad install and how to make a rad support.
It will have to come up around the rad to hold up the new sheet metal on the front.

Anyhow, a few exhaust pics to add to the build thread.....













Thanks for looking,

Thanks.

She'll probably see only one show in pristine condition. After that any other show she goes to will be complete with paint chips and road rash.

Building it to drive, not to trailer around.
