Yep, Still no progress...
But did buy this, works ok.... Will need to back the pipe from now on with sand after the test run... Have plenty on little mods i can do now....and what I think is a cracker of idea for a rear bar and tire carrier..

Just read this front to back....that donk sounds awesome, and the 4 door chop will look sweet.
Hope your Muttly is still keeping the thieving locals out, I am a "blue heeler" guy.....but the principle is the same.
"Feel free to come in, but be prepared to get bitten...a lot"
Looking forward to your seeing your barwork....was never really a GQ fan, until I saw your build-up.
Great work.

Started the rear bar tonight. Rear lights are not set in yet. But give you some idea. At this stage it looks the same as the rest but hopping my addtions will make it stand out. Will have a flat plate for the lights to sit on and also a tow hitch. I'm sure the tow hitch has to be DOT rated. But in my case it won't be. (naughty) but it will be braced bracketed and bolted in 5 different locations and good old lot of mig welding. Could be more by the time Im finished.
So far so good. Unfortunately the super cheap auto pipe bender can't do the type of close bends I'm after due it's bending radius and i dont want to waste pipe. Being a plumber it would be nice to have my standard benders in a larger model, but this works great for things like this.
