    love how those air lines are run through the x-member with hardline on the outside. Never seen it done that way before. I'm assuming the lines are soft inside the x-member to flex with the control arms correct?

    Thats how the custom guys are doing it. But they are running flexible copper inside of all the frame rails so you never see it at all. Some guys are slicing the frame length wise to install them. Then re-welding the frame.

    this is not my job...im a Union sheet metal worker by trade...coating is something that i started as a hobby 4 years ago and it grew to the point i had to make a decision on sheet metal or coating....im involved heavily in my unions politics so i choose what my "calling" is and use the coating for funding projects and making my stuff look nice....So when i get a little more along L.K. ill do ya up for a good price....

    chicks with tats are almost always awesome. this is sort of related and I got a real good laugh http://early-onset-of-night.tumblr.c...-dayton-oh-was

    "Tattoo artist Ryan Fitzgerald from Dayton, OH was hit with a $100,000 lawsuit last week by his ex-girlfriend Rossie Brovent. She claims that her boyfriend was supposed to tattoo a scene from Narnia on her back but instead tattooed an image of a pile of excrement with flies buzzing around it."
