Well it's actually almost a year since I finished the V2. Where does the time go...man.

I am a welder by trade, but retired as far as a source of income, and more a machinist now. BUT this truck was built 95% with a bandsaw, hand drill/drill press and belt sander. As basic as it gets...

The only other items I needed were a shear, punch press, and mill. The mill I needed for the A-arm pivot blocks and motor mount, but I (or anyone) could have done without the shear and punch press, a Dremel would do as well, just a bit slower.

I could have used more exotic materials, but I didn't see a need for them and used what was readily available, and I'd encourage anyone to experiment with scrap material and just try different things until they get what they're looking for strength-wise and aesthetically. Everyone has their own tastes.

Keep it safe and give it a go..... thanks for the compliments!
