Well might as well post a little project I picked up 1976 Yamaha DT125 hasn’t ran in a few decades but stored inside paid $400 and already got it to run PO put a gas tank sealer inside and it made its way to the carb a little pick and a battery jumper got it fired up and idling so time to take it apart and see what I can clean and paint View attachment 34866

Nice! I have a DT175 one been considering getting fired up and cruising around town.

That’s my plan going to keep it simple in the rebuild and try and get it running for under $1k I’m already at $650 with parts and I still need tires and to register it hopefully get it street legal

Made this rock funnel thing for my folks. They’re building a house and had to make a giant retaining wall using gabion cages. I thought this thing was big and heavy til I saw the excavator that was filling it up. Pretty cool project though and different from the norm for me.

Here is a truck i have helped a bit on. We notched the frame at my house, and then have helped him with a couple odds and ends to get it on the road. He bought it a year ago, replaced motor and trans, bagged it, gave it a cheapo paint job and did wheels and tires.... all out of a single car garage in his apartement complex. lol

I have been working on this rad 56 GMC for a customer. It’s on a 2009 GMC Envoy AWD chassis with a 5.3.



I moved the axle back 1.75” and added a watts link, new rear bag mounts and designed a cantilever rear shock mount.

We did a watts link on that c10 as well... although your work looks a bit cleaner than ours. lol

Love these old trucks.

I have 5 to 7 classic trucks lined up for air ride work right now. Much easier to build than an Off Road Truck.

Another distraction in the shop. The old my freind can do it cheaper redo.

83 C10 4 linked on air bags. Lowrider style.



I drew up a new setup that makes a nice cross member that incorporates link mounts and has areas for the exhaust and plumbing to pass through. For the record it is never cheaper to do it twice.
