"Z"ing the frame. using the rest of the Toyota frame pieces, but cut and turned over for a foundation to build a bed on it.








Welding in the caps on the Z'd part of the frame



It's officially sitting on it's own suspension.




Testing the feel for Original Grill. wasn't likin the was it was too skinny at the bottom.




so after making a few more calls, and trying to round up another option for a grill, my father in law calls me and tells me to check out his..

AWESOME!! it's a grill off of a 1937-1939 Ford 8N tractor!!!! Perfect!!  now I gotta weld it together, and cut most of the back off.





Stay tuned for more in the coming weeks!!
