been working on the new square dually... i actually bought two trucks to make one. was hoping to have it a turkey drag but time wasnt on my side.

here what one of them looked like when i bought it.. once i got it shipped here it wasnt quite what i wanted it to stay like. lets just say it came from up north and 28 years of salt wernt kind to it..
Image

so i bought this one to use the complet body off of.
Image

went to work on the tear down right away and spent alot of man hours just cleanin up the frame and painting it. painted the motor and didnt some finishing of the z to the front of the frame. build new upper control arms. Im not doing anything super fancy with it because i plan on driving the piss out of it when im done and dont want to do to much to where i dont want to drive it anymore. did orders alot more chrome for the motor (alternator, backets etc.))

just got plum the bags and then the body will start going back on. hopin to have it at texmex (not completed with paint and all body work but at least in primer. )

i just threw the wheels on to roll the chassis around, they still have to be sent to get cut but its odd that i managed to put all of them on wrong.
