I think.... Everyone is making to big of deal out of this,Brian didn't sound angry or pissed off and if you can't handle someones comments/opinions then you need to grow up!

I agree with you 100% chuck, maybe they need to grow up before making such comments... It's funny how everyone has issues when an oval is cut up ,he's posting up to show what he's building and his progress, not to get crapped on....and my comment wasnt directed to Brain,or anyone..it's my opinion and my opinion alone..it goes back to .... :D

Matco didn't have the tips in stock and had to order them. Going to finish cutting the other front bar off and the back piece on the body. I'm going to try to seat the body on the chassis later that day. Plus need to get the frt beam off so I can sell it.
