Mind you the pictured subframe is the hacked up, tweaked a bunch subframe to be jigged. Today picking up 20 ft of 1.25" .083 1430 chromoly to build the final frames with. They will be more sexy, gusseted, ready to rock.

Color decision is driving me crazy!
White or bronze

Dark wheels never photograph well, I bet they look the business in person though.

 

Fantastic build. Some impressive fabricating being done.

Simon gets it! Lol, they look fantastic in person, but near impossible to photograph.

How do you embed videos? I thought it did it automatically, tried 5 different codes and no dice.

Crackin'. I reckon they'll suit the carbon bits really well.

Absolutely love this mate! Will definitely be following! Personally I think I prefer the wheels white as it matched the cage and went well with the yellow. But the more I look at the bronze the more it grows on me!  :lol:

Thanks guys ... If I stay with the bronze, everything will be powder coated to match, roll cage an all engine bits.
Same if I go with the white.. Cage and all will be same the white.

When I first started thinking about this build. I had the off white theme in my head, it's just not unique enough for what we are trying to do here.
