Here's the next project... It's an older Larry's "Pro-95" 2 seater, "knockdown" kit. The tubs are filled with various pieces and parts, including: 1" X 1-1/2" front trailing arms QA-1 Coilover front shocks Rear disc brakes CNC pedal assembly 4 point harnesses neal steering brake and on top you can see, 2X3 rear trailing arms, a used rack and pinion out of something, and the front beam with through rods. Being a "knockdown" kit, the frame comes in pieces, cut, bent, and ready to weld. Hmmm, maybe santa will bring me a welder for Christmas... or maybe I, ahem, HE, already did!

Wow, it really is in a box. Lots of work. Based on Blu I'm sure it will be amazing when it is done!

I read your bit about "Sand rail in a Box" in your signage and always wondered how a Sand Rail could fit in a box. Its like Bren said "Wow, it really is in a box"

Don't blame it on Cori!!! Never! She pushed harder than anyone for me to get Blu done! Now she's pushing me to get the rail done ASAP! I think she wants me to chase her through the trails this summer!
