- Now for the next question... what constitutes the "no more than 50% pre build" on this? I am starting from scratch. If all I did on a running LT was a pulley swap and tire change, would that fit the 50% rule? Not trying to be a jackass, I just want to understand the rules. I could build 6 of these in 9 months, I just dont know how far I can go in the next 60 days.
When posting your thread, you need to take pictures of your parts pile, etc, as well as write up what all needs to be done to it. If it doesnt sound/ look like you have a whole lot to do, it won't qualify (see: what you described). mr.modifieds 2014 Baja Sears build is a perfect example of a started build that was already started but still had over 50% of work to be done to it. The required status updates are partially to uphold that requirement as well. Best thing to do is just gather up parts and get your plan finalized until the start. | |

- I think the 50% rule is to stop precisely what you mentioned. Someone doing a pulley swap and paintjob and calling it a build. You can go as far as you think half way is, but it's up to the Administrators to decide.
That is exactly right. | |

| Nice. To be honest, I like the original concept but the new one looks more 'tractor-y' | |

| That would be really interesting...the T-bucket hood is already the shape of a tractor hood so it wouldn't be all THAT hard...right? | |

| The sheet metal is the easy part. I need it to fit within the build rules. Not sure it would without the rear fender pan | |
