Back with part 14 of 1,656,495 of Big Mike’s rebuild…shum on (RIP MJ)….Billie Jean is not Big Mike’s lover, she’s just a girl that thinks that he is the one, the kid is not his son…alright that’s enough…moving on…
Here’s the frame dolly completed…Big Mike will tell you more about it:
“This is a dolly that I had my friend Ron Warkentin of True Berserk Fabrication create for the Prelude to rest on so that the entire front end from top to bottom to underside could be prepped and painted.” -Big Mike
“This dolly has casters that support 900lb/wheel. The style and strength of the tubing is far beyond what I needed for this car, but that just means that it can and will be used for other vehicles. In fact, the body shop just might keep the dolly after all is said and done.” -Big Limpin’
Coulda used it to wheel in Michael Jackson’s gold-plated casket…it looked heavy…what, I’m just sayin…
Subframe, crossmember, suspension, traction bar all had to come out to ensure that the front of the Prelude was completely painted, even the underside…
All loaded up….Big Mike actually just picked the shit up and threw it on his shoulder and put it gently on the dolly. He was gonna just hold it up while they painted it but he had to go to work. He also used a black and white camera to take the pics too so blame him if you can’t see the color of the car…
So glossy…
Stay tuned….
Damn you Mike for using that Lip!!!!!!!!!!!!! Urrgg!!!
Good shit fellas!
