LETS GO RACING!!!

Started on this one a couple of days ago.

JJ said I could pick one from the boneyard. Thank you sir!!!

Franz and I never thought this would used used so we put it on the rack first, hardest to get to now.

I “carefully “slid it into the place so we could pluck it with the F420. That’s a screw jack under the front.

Oops……🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂…I believe corporate has pics/footage of our shenanigans moving it from where I parked it.

We will build it if it comes.

This looks fun. Is it going to be ready for the same debut as JJ’s class 11?

I'm at the age where "fuck off", "fuck you", and "fuck it" answer most questions.

Sweet!  Pat, if you’re not going to use that body lift I might take it off your hands.

Not going to make it to SlashX next month with this car.

Shooting for the May 8,BOR-racing series, Dinosaur Dash in Vernal, UT.

Exactly Rusty!  Plus it already has off road experience!!!!

Tore down the body and pan yesterday. Body is pretty solid. Needs a bit of rust repair in normal spots

The SUPER SOLID!!!!!! pan is what made me want to get it down out of the rafters.  

Removed the body lift. We’re going to put that on the Fargo shop truck!

We will build it if it comes.

Stock seats suck.

Prepping pan before cage work begins. Yesterday’s progress. Shaved the seat rails.

Dissected this cover plate to gain access for the  torsion adjuster install. 

Chopped the rear shock mounts back as far as allowed. 

I’m going to be running a link pin beam on this car…..This being a ball joint pan, by sectioning 1 1/4” from the pan head, to match the link pin being spacing, it gives you a 1” lift due to the BJ lower beam location being 1” lower compared to a LP pan head. 

We will build it if it comes.

Hell yeah, chop it up Pat!

Knowing very little about Baja’s, this is fascinating information.  Why does the rear shock mount get chopped?
