Congrats. Frogisland, can't wait to see it all done.

If you want to fit the car on the bottom of that nice trailer your building, you might need to cut the wheel wheels at an angle in the rear to allow the car to come in a little further. We couldn't fit mine in Rickredline's TPD without changing out the tires. The 14.50 x 17 Dunesports are quite a bit wider than the 15's. If the car is going on the lift, no problems. We had Ricks on top and mine below last rip out.

I measured 6'11" from our square inner fenders to the ramp door. Don't have much room to angle those as they are +/-3" from the tires. I think we are narrower than the TPD. We have 97.5" wide inside. How much wider does the 17's make the car?

Is it too late to install a slide out on our stacker... dunno.gif

Grant, I'm sending you a new battery for your camera. Obviously it gave up on you after only one photo. Damn I hate that.

That way you can post all the photos you had planned on posting. wife.gif

He ordered at SSSS in Sept.


If you go to the thread on the CARB Compliant car , that was actully Frog's car to start with . When we looked at the schedule we decided we could do another one and still meeet Frog's delivery schedule.

Sand Tramp
Thanks for the info Grant. That is fast turn around for a bad ass car.
