TIG's weld cooler...

Joe's car is even cooler. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

So... if you marry the TIG, can I have the Kickboxer? (It's Utah... we can have two or three) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Nice job....but why didn't you just weld the holes closed as weall as the holes for the windshield wiper?

I did that on Frank....gives it a cleaner look.

I have about $1800 in it total (with bottle and helmet). It's some of the best money I've ever spent.
