W:shock:W:!:

Have you driven it yet?
How does the winch work?
Fantastic. It looks even better this time around"thumbsup"

Thanks guys. :lol:"thumbsup""thumbsup"

I drove him in the basement yesterday in front wheel drive, he drives good so far. The winch is incredible!!! It has so much power I'm afraid to try and stall it out.

The winch is still the prototype, my friend wants to perfect the free spool mechanism next. As far as availability......well, it took 1 year for me to get the motor cover, :lol: that's how busy he is.
 
Phewww! I thought you where working so much on this thing you where starting to loose your mind!:lol: Looking very nice!8)

Who says I'm not. :lol: I lost 8 hours of work time on Sat because of my daughter's soccer party and picking up dad at the airport at midnight (my prime building time), so I stayed up all night working; I was up till 2:30 last night. I may be a little fuzzy about stuff still. :lol::lol:
 
I lost 1 and a half days last week because my sisters car broke down in Thornton so I had to bail her out.... AND buy the parts for her car!:lol: I am going to have to work on mine before and after work just to finish before we leave.:-(
 
:lol: Yeah, I also didn't want the residue on the tires being left everywhere I set him down in the house. :lol:"thumbsup"

Michele hates it when I carry my crawlers everywhere I go too. I cant imagine if they left residue everywhere :lol:

:lol: Yeah, sometimes I work in the basement, sometimes I work on the coffee table in the living room so I can be around the family, every time I finish something I set him on the kitchen counter or dining room table so Heather and the kids can see. :lol: I'd be a dead man if he left tire crap everywhere. :lol:"thumbsup"

BTW, it was tough getting up the nerve to cut the body apart, those rear quarters are from the new body.
 
I just pee'd myself again :shock:

I am the same way--at family get togethers I bring mine----even more so since I got both my brother in laws hooked on them (one of them heading to montana for next weekend )
