    Bob, I just love your videos, love your builds as well. I instruct auto technology at a high school tech class. I just wanted to let you know I’ll be using this video as a reference this year when I cover steering theory , Ackerman Angle , A.K.A - toe out on turns. This will be a great example how someone like yourself never stops learning and how knowledge is power. Dig this ol truck it’s the best one yet you have done! So ya, there’s that.

    A many great vehicles have been drawn out on the garage (or hangar) floor. Back in the 1930's the Wedell-Williams air racers were built from chalk marks on the hangar floor. Those were the only "blueprints" or "plans". These were record breaking aircraft. That's the first thing I thought of when you were building the frame and suspension.
