well things are starting to happen we got the body panals cut from the 3mm sheet and I am taking the bonnet and grill in to be bent by a press so I will have nice strat lines. the next step will be to then put the body together I have made some changes to the struk plans it will be almost 3inchs longer so I can put an extra shaft I am going to run a chain reduction to get a smaler sproket on the rear axel this will help to keep the drive chain stay out of the dirt and mud.
I have also made the body in 3 parts not one as the plan shows and the floor will be flat and I am mounting the body on an under carrage and this will let me dubble up on the spreder bars and take the weight off the axels. all shafts and axels wil be mounted on pillow block bearings I will be also mounting a hydrolic pump for later use.

I was asking about pictures. Just read the part above the line. The part below the line is what is called a signature and most folks have something there of personal preference. Yes, I know you don't carry guns there and we're trying to keep our own government from doing the same here.

To Roy yes you are right but that the way it is the people voted for it with the last govenment and it became law now we just live with it. my last post to jay was that I did not know what guns had to do with making a dozer. I did not know that he put that on the bottom of his post as his thing. and I am just learning how to post.
