Thread: Crappy fab work

Crappy, with some stylish accents LOL......

yeah i met the guy once in oco b/c my buddy was datin his sister at the time, and in fairness that f1 does have a front to rear cage, cab cage is ok(as in holdup to A rollover) and the dude built it when he was like 15.
but given his situation (giant garage and mass tools) i would would have built something else already and pretended like i never built that hahah
or i would have just gotten way spoiled by drivin his dads tt ls buggy lol

My old bedcage.. Not sure if I posted pics of it or not.













Lastly, gotta love the mid-bed mounted spare tires.. And the longbed fenders on a shortbed truck. Not to mention stock beams with coilovers up front. Although i will say the front worked pretty good for never making any valving changes and having a really crappy shock angle.


This is what the truck looked like when we got home from this trip.. 3rd trip out with the truck.

didnt you mean to post that in updated pics? i saw you building it today

/\/\Representing his favorite fab-shop on the back window I see and parked in the same spot...lol...... you learn more and more as you get further into the sport. I bet you thought that shit was super duper sicky gnar when you first got it though..

Take a closer look Rubbertoe.

And I knew it was a hackjob, but it had good parts, just about brand new tires, good seats, all fiberglass, fresh paint, fresh motor, etc.

LOL my toes are rubber! but I see BAJA SHOP sticker in one of the pics. I remember along time ago when that thing use to be parked in front of in-n-out, didnt see to many runners in the area back then, but when I saw yours i always thought it was cool!!

im pretty sure baja shop didnt build the rear of the truck could be mistaken but
1- they dont mount glass like that
2- they have/had one of the best welders ive ever seen working there
3- they are not big fans of single sheer anything(unless double sheer isnt possible or needed
i could be mistaken but thats my 2 cents

looks closer at the sticker.

Cheese... Im sure it'd be more awesome if

-We didnt talk about it ... again
-No one would have to re-explain the story to new people who dont know
-The horse can die and wrot in piece

one of the dirt alliance guys probably built it.

Really now? Where the ef did I say BS DID build it genius?

ok fucko i never said that you said they built that truck.............BUT the picture you posted of the back window/ bedside mount implies they did....ever think about that genius and are you going to parker? this way we can talk in person and finally settle these "debates" we have had......crazy huh having to talk to someone in person rather than running there mouth over the internet.....if not parker i will be back in orange count in october PM if your interested in meeting up......... like evennumberseven said no more talking about this you can PM me if you would like

x2! obviously its showing how shitty the bedsides are mounted.

I can tell you 100% Baja shop didn't build that rear bed cage. It was actually cut off a rolled ranger and "welded" on your truck by a friend of mine a LONG time ago(also where the long bed bedsides came from). Oh and that "rear" bumper was originally a front bumper, LOL. A hole lot of hack work there......

I don't think he ever implied BS built that. Just that it was hack. Now for some of us who have been around for a while those 2 go hand in hand, BUT those of us who have been around for a while also know something THAT hack wouldn't come out of there...

i like how kevin is getting shit for this when he never even brought up baja shop. some people need to lay off and stop jumping to conclusions.

read my first post i never said that kevin was claiming they built that truck.....the picture made it look that way.....

its old news. i dont thing Evan was agreeing with you either. its old news and your the only one bitching. this has be gone over multiple times now. get over it.

Looks like pics of a bedcage to me. Theres an mdr sticker on that window too, maybe they mounted the bedsides.

lol I see it now guys, it was to hard to notice but do I spy a X through the sticker.....hahaha

Oh and wow, calm down everyone, dont jump the gun and get on kevin. I brought up baja shop, but it was because of the sticker on his back window, I was making a joke because I know the what happen between kevin and the baja shop--------So drop the baja chop dealio, and fyi they are only stickers...

back to crappy fab.....

Yup easy to see the FUGLY CLA building in the back ground. For a good architecture school they sure let some ugly ass crap be built on campus!

Thats ballsy going on the freeway with that.

LMFAO I KNEW my truck had two front bumpers! Lol Did it come off a Baja bug? It looks like it could have bolted to a VW style beam front end.

That bike thing is interesting to say the least.. But at least he has a seatbelt!



And whoever you are Jack, read my sig please. Enough said.

ok im confused..... so Baja Shop built the moto-3wheel-thingy then some guy stole it and drove down the 57? Now people are upset about the quality of the craftsmanship on the wheeler of death.....lol

that building belongs in this thread. i get so much junk mail from the school and a bunch of news stories about how that building isnt up to earthquake code.

I think he just wants to meet men or something. lol

so theres a meet and greet in parker ,... cool i'm in ...

This is the engine cage that came in the truck i bought, on like the 3rd small desert test just going through woops and after an hour drive home i took the clip off and saw that is was cracked almost all the way around a weld...turns out that the welds were grinded down to almost no weld and was then painted to look good so we had to throw some fatty beads over it to keep it together for the moment lol

saw this gem at the oc fair grounds....makes me want a ford haha
