      Something Old, Something New!

      We have been contracted to rebuild the "Jesse James Monster Garage Trophy Truck" by another desert racer to make it competitive and more reliable/ race legal. I know that this is not a Pro-Touring build but this is definitely something different and cool that im sure some of you would enjoy seeing.

      Here is the old truck and Chassis.

      Now, were ditching the rear "mezz" setup for a more traditional 4 link with a new GMR9 rear end.

      I didn't know Everhart bought the TT, that's pretty cool. I'd assume you're keeping the body so that it still has the notoriety of the MG build, but slightly more, functional?

      yes, I believe that Rob himself will be painting the body the same. He has been practicing his 4 stage flake overlay! haha.

      Damn! Those are cool!

      Have any pictures of the process of building those arms? (I understand if it's a secret)
