Any special plans for the steering?

Well being a pro stocker I will need a quick steering response, not sure the real tumbler steering would be quick enough but I will experiment with it a while to find the safest way possible and still look cool.

Mostly 16, some 14, trying to keep it under a 1000 lbs. I still have all the sheet metal angles around the side window
area to weld on then try and get the whole top to go up and back similar to the movie but not exact. This is not a exact
copy but my translation in what the story line would also have been working on with the bridging vehicle, for the US army. Small Reconnaissance vehicle. Ha Ha enough of the bat.
cut off finger slowed me down for 2 weeks , starting back in on project. Front end next.

Nope it will take 6 weeks probably. just got to get used to a stub . Thanks for asking. I have a good nurse, she was
grossed out at first but soon got used to changing the bandage daily.

This project is really cutting edge, lol . My wife un boxed my spindles and hubs for the SRV10, and cut the tip of her little finger off. I feel terrible. She was going to surprise me with a picture while I was at work and lifted it out and cut it off. I met her a the ER and she really was hurting, but they got her patched up and now both of us have fingers that are rapped up in protectors. Just call us both 9 1/2. Back on track when we are healed up. We sure are a silly couple. See ya next time.
