So... I was telling a friend I ran in to in Gordons Well about how I had NO pictures of my last baja...

...apparently he had a couple.

the only fabrication I did on this one was mounting seats, and some light tabs... but I did assemble it from a BARE chassis that I bought (title and all) for $250... I was awfully proud of myself too... :lol:

It had 3x3's, 6 over adjustable torsion beam, 930's, 002 bus box from Rancho with close/ welded 3rd 4th etc, 1835 with a 110 cam and a single 40IDF... fun car.


...and no... I never had a cotter pin fall out of this one.
Hope you enjoy...

looks like you lost your belt. Strong work friend.

what happened to that one...?

...the sambian's disapprove when there is no poor taste roof rack, or rattle can skull painting.

Lotrat.... No.

Chris... wasn't akward until you came in.

Stoich... I needed a 5.0 mustang to fill my "Early 20's speeding ticket quota". Still got the Mustang though for what its worth. Gotta have toys for Summertime too right?

anyways... I like my current one better anyway.... and i'll like it even more in a couple months.... :shock: BOOOOOOM.


The Smurf goes under the knife in January.

oh damn....

come to think of it.... we may have to come up with some sort of an agreement.... Looks like a good time to build some fort of jig for that rig :twisted: you start turning out replications of that front end... could make you very popular round these parts

Yeah, if it works :lol: ( patiently waiting for numbers to surface after it is cycled for the first time)

THIS, my friend, is a crowd that demands that all suggestions of the word 'IF' be replaced with \:D/ WHEN \:D/

Looks fun to drive. In the last picture, it seems that you're in a rush or something.
