Dunno if anyone said it yet, but all this is missing is M. Burrough custom seats from Rusty. Wicked build man. Loving it.

any updates on this? pics of the new shop?

[Repiks]

No updates yet. We were forced to move shops which set us back on all aspects a couple weeks. Of course, our nightly routine of working on the rat rod (or drinking tall boys, whichever you prefer to call it) has been put on a small hold.

All that is left is the brakes. Currently, John Lee is using a set of c4 ZR1 calipers and rotors. The only problem is that the rotor doesn't like to comply with the wheel choice. So, we're going to have to do some shaving, hammering, and any other sort of debauchery to get them to work. After the brakes are finished, a little bit of interior work is needed and we'll be ready to go.

Thanks for the love guys. We would have loved to make it out to SOWO, but we weren't able. As soon as it's ready for driving, I'm sure you'll see more of it. Both in a fun magazine, and through videos.

This has been a fantastic build to watch. I just found it today and went through it all. Since your close to Helen Ga you should come out to SOWO or southern worthesee. It would be a pleasure to meet you at the show. The build is nice. Its always a pleasure to see when art meets metal. The metal work is awesome I wish I was closer by to check out more of the work.

We'll probably just keep them fully polished. Raybuck did an awesome job at hand polishing them.

The radiator is bolted up and it will idle at 180* for as long as we want. It's so close to driving. Working on brakes now.

CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS THING MOVING!1!1!1!

they look great but i think the recessed areas painted black would help the "ninja star" design pop out a little more. well tahts if you wanted it to pop out more. will look great no matter what.
