    welcome from me too.
    the 40 is looking great and thanks for the photo's--have i mentioned i love photo's
    can i suggest you start a build thread in the hotrod build log section with pictures and that way it keeps all your stuff together
    and also provides a form of motivation and history of the build.
    plus i like watching projects progress - no matter how long they take
    anyway,thanks for taking the time to show us.

    Thanks for the kind words and welcome's
    I'll try to get that build log thing figured out soon as I can get the time
    Dang bathroom remodel is taking way to long… LOL
    But like any project.. "work hard and it goes easy"
    Some cars get finished... Some are close... some will never be... But that's the Fun Part!
    Remember... It's not all about driving em or showing them off! It's about satisfying yourself that counts. Build em for your fun, not someone else’s idea of what fun is! Now…Hand me that 9/16 will ya?

    Got the Watts link rotator fabricated, the torque tube triangulated ( will be pulling that out and drill 2" lightening holes down the full length of both sides), Watts frame and mounting arms built.

    Lol. Yes. I over engineered the torque arm. Hence the need for lightening holes.

    Almost forgot. I made my first tubing bender with great results. Wish I had built one years ago now. I bought the Pro Tools dies.

    Great work! Tubing benders are one of those things people don't think they need, then when they get one the wonder how the heck they ever got along without one!!!!

    I'm already there Dave.

    I find myself trying to find future products which involve bending tubing. Now I can't sleep.
