Don't know if this puts me into the catagory of "doesn't have a life" but i just finished drawing my tires and rims to add to the other things i've drawn up in 3D for my '84

can't figure out how to get it to post just the picture in this window, so here's the link

hope it's visable

the front bumper is the first one i drew, there's also a tube frame one thats on a frozen layer, but i'm going to be going with neither and will be drawing up a square tubing bumper.....sometime. The roll bar and diff. guards, if you can see them, are also part's of old plans

the roll bar is a modified form of one i found at a local 4x4 shop that was going out of business <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

the sliders are a future plan, the tires and rims i just drew today....wish i could post a bigger better picture

think there's also tube doors with a full frame around the edge of the door.....why, i may never know....i just draw what comes to mind

I'll take this post over the other one....in terms of no-lifin' anyway. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

Autocad-- the cheap way to fab! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

dang, looks awsome man <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
cant wait to learn that stuff, seriously

looks so cool with all of the parts put on the truck!

Here:


It goes: {image}URL{/image}

'cept replace the { } with [ ]

thanks, i tried that on the test forum but it didn't work

Hmm, what URL were you usin? yours should be http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/7707/truckangle5wd.jpg

That does look pretty sweet though! My dad's awsome at CAD design,(well I'd hope so, he does it for a living <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />) It's all greek to me!!!

Next step, MAKE IT!!!!

True true, i want too so badly. The roll bar is out of the picture, want to go with an interior when the time comes....someday. The sliders won't be hard, those could be done in a weekend, really need to start on the front bumper too....no drawing for that though....not yet anyway

EDIT:
Any of you folks don't happen to have all the measurements for a whole truck now would ya? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Don't know about the rest of you but i think it would be pretty cool to be able to see what would fit and where anywhere on the truck........i should have taken measurements during the rebuild....didn't have CAD at the time though <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />. I"ve almost got the whole exterior line of the cab in the drawing, a skeleton if you will.
