So so close to wrapping this up. Got everything stitch welded. Next is epoxy all seams to fully seal in and make everything smooth for paint. Had to upgrade rear end as original axle bent due to weight. Went from 2 to 6 bearings. Plan to make a removable motor mount in next week so I can get this thing mobil.

Also got logo burned put for front doors. Also putting an american flag on left side. Went and picked out a 300lb pig for first big cook on July 4th

Been a bit since the test fire. Made some changes to FB and transfer chute size. Decreased heat up time in half.



finally able to get some color on it today. Used custom coat truck bed liner in bright purple. Daughter picked color. Plan on getting logos done tomorrow in Black.

Also had a new fireboard mount 3d printed. Much better than factory provided one
