Let me rephrase LOL

I wish he was closer so he can build it. Or help me. I can weld, but not good enough to build this comfortably. And I can't afford to pay someone to build it. Damn high school budget.


Nick, How much more would it cost for a shop to build something just like this? I saw material was around $1500, but I have no clue how much a shops labor rate could be, or how many hours this takes.

i have ALOT of hours into this thing, but if i were to try to sell it, id be looking in 2500-3k range.

Do you think you'll have to watch the weight you put on the back of that so you dont rub the tires? Looks like it could be close with a heavy load.
