Please understand guys, FTE has strict rules forbidding non-supporting vendors from advertising and selling on the forum, so let's please not go down that path, or ask questions that might point the thread in that direction.

I would really appreciate it if we could just enjoy the awesome build to come, and be like almost everyone else who will read this thread, and wish the build was for us!

Paul, when did you start the project? When do you think it will be finished?

I've been looking for a 6.7 rollover or cabin-fire to start this same project. Will be watching with great interest!

Subscribing! Thank you for your efforts with the pictures and updates. This is super interesting and cool and different from all the "my whatever broke, how do I fix it?" threads.
