ebinmaine 67,421 #27 Posted September 20, 2019 Absolutely LOVE that 30s Mack. The upper photo screams "East Fryeburg, ME" 48 minutes ago, Justice77 said: Yes, I will likely start this project with a grill and go from there That's fantastic! Really though... What else do you need?? A frame and some tires. Maybe an engine. Good to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justice77 163 #28 Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Ha, I got that 1930? ford truck grill surround on my first offer so the game is ON! A lot of imagery going through my head right now... Maybe go and see my gokart guy this weekend and see what he's got in the for sale pile. I'm thinking 8" tall x 8" - 10" wide wheels and Hoosier dirt oval tires. 3" - 4" susp. travel... and ideally, crazy power. My "process" is to lay components out on the garage floor roughly where they'll be... and scratch my head a lot, fabricate a bit, and keep doing that until it's done. Have any of you heard of or follow Grind Hard Plumbing? - not a plumbing co. They build the kind of performance I can only dream of, in small custom contraptions. Check out their channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCivi_f1nniBzEOfKhRoN12Q This is a 10 minute time lapse of their Barbie Jeep build. It's pretty crazy! The playlist of this build is pretty good as well. Edited September 20, 2019 by Justice77 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's my exact process as well. The wife always asks "what the hell are you just staring at it for?" 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
