Project Cottonmouth

[Tincup]

Latest update. I got my front suspension in from Scott's Hot Rod Shop. They did a great job custom building it to fit the Dodge Chassis and my custom spindles.

Also got my CNC dash panel and Speedhut gauges. Had the dash panel hydro dipped.

Just joining in on the thread. This build is awesome. I wish I had the knowledge and wallet to design stuff like your doing. Maybe one day!

Have a look at your thermostat before you fill it up with coolant. They don't like to sit around dry and over time can get rather sticky opening and closing.
