Title: Newbie saying hello from across the pond.
Post by: SlingShot on December 07, 2006, 06:57:35 am
Hello to all, just getting started, I've heard so much about the lounge from my good buddy Zach'e Gomulka, that I had to see what all the fuss was about.
 Here are a couple of my projects. The Truck is under the knife but should be rollin soon....

Right now it is getting dropped on Crestlines with a short swing axle rear, 4" narrowed beam, and a very detailed mild engine. Those Crestlines have a lot of offset- really giving us grief!
