no air bag needed :)

nor turn signal switch

We are just about all the way down. More cleaning then the build up begins.

First process is completing the chassis table and beginning the rear frame section mods.

More soon.

as the building begins we will some what work both ends. Soon a block and trans case will be test fitted to find motor plate tab locations.

One of the guys who works for me say's, "we all have special sections when race car building. The Boss man is good with designing the rear suspension, fabricating and welding the back half. Ricky is good with the front half, front suspension, springs alignment, bump steer."

"My specialty is the middle half" {:}"You know, wiring switches, gauges and such"

Not many race trucks have a front half, middle half, and back half, but the Super 10 does!

So what your saying is....you got a truck and a half to build! I like the name "super 10", I have been calling my daily the "super dime", it has quite a tale to tell :)

Dion,

the "Super 10" is great idea,Thanks to Dale Firesale for the idea. It gives lot's of opening for BS carrying on.

The truck being a super stocker fits perfect.

Thank again Dale

Does this make it a 3/2 ton?

Today Ken began planning his middle half work. Ken is our in house middle half specialist. He excels at switches, wiring, gauges, shifter, etc.

In this photo he is visualize the placement of components.

Once I heard him say "Waaaaaaaaaa"

No question the Super 10 will be bad to the bone. Notice it is running 63 MPH in the shop :)

We are near the time to begin construction. After two pressure washing's the Super 10 is much cleaner. I think two more rounds with the washer will have it in good shape.

The chassis construction tables are almost finished. Next week will show progress with building the new rear sub-frame.
