Test.

I have the same box, I think it was called the homeowner series. One my kids gave it to me when he moved out of state. I don't keep tools in it, just light stuff like sandpaper, scotchbrite pads, etc. Probably overloaded it. Push the drawer tabs in to remove the drawer from the slide, then you...

Far from finished, but have the rough shape of my -70 brake pedal mod done enough to try on for size today. Should work well with my hockey stick foot,(fused ankle) and also clear the front side hack strut.

A few tack welds.

Some progress on the new chassis.

About a month ago I was making progress on the new side hack, when I got a text about my Mustang project. It wasn't for sale just yet, but a guy, that knows a guy, etc. came by to look at it, and we made a deal. So a couple weeks to get it trailer ready, make a path to get it out, and gather...

Swag table, HF saw, 1.25" bar. pretty straight.

Just realized it's been over 10 years since I retired my big red boxes after 12 years of day to day use at work. I did succumb to some GJ influence back then, and built it into the garage. the vinyl floor tile top is still going strong.

I missed this when you were building it. Just read the whole thread. Nice job!

Pencil aided design, the next, slightly wider one on the right. I've worked on, and aligned a handful of Harley rigs, so I knew the basics of designing for adjustability etc.

I learned a lot riding plan B around. Just got the pieces in to start building plan B+.

Always have a plan B. For maybe when you get a little too old, or incur a little brain damage. When the time comes, execute it.

Thanks, they were pretty much done working on me by the end of 2018. But some of the hardware in my right leg broke, so, back to the OR. Everything went sideways due to infections, 9 more surgeries throughout 2019 trying to save the leg. Then nearly a year of walking restrictions before finding...

The other side. The engine is unique, there are no off the shelf exhaust systems made for it. So I had to build it anyway.
