Fumbler Build

[lilboatsman]

My last few weeks have consisted of the Covid, RSV and the Flu all messing up our holiday events. As we get back into a grove, I'm working on finding a local machine shop that will work with me in creating a key part. The big machine shops don't have time to talk. I have to find a smaller one that isn't booked out for the next year.

That sucks.

Im lucky in that I still haven’t gotten Covid. But now that I said it…….

Need I say more?

O MAN...
Thats awesome news...
One more piece of the puzzle...

[lilboatsman]

The best news yet is that I found someone local to do my transmission fab work. It's probably the biggest piece of the puzzle I've been looking for.

[WAR Machine]

Sounds fantastic man...
Glad the pieces are coming together, even if it is slow...

Front tires.

Brings back memories when BWD first posted his set of tires…

I was thinking the same thing! Probably because I went through nearly all of his build again this year, taking notes.

This is what nearly 1000 lbs. of rusty steel looks like.
