I started my diet at 220lbs. 10 of the hardest weeks I've ever faced later..I was 185lbs the day of the show, which is this pic. It's not steroids...the muscle their.. it's knowing how to diet to display it.(no carbs)

185lbs..just right....not too bulky or crazy looking...a steroid infested bodybuilder will be around +-245lbs with hardly any bodyfat unreal looking
Updated pics will be this July...I bought a house this last year and was unable to compete...Along with 2 daughters and a wife.. No need to argue here right...
Test p is active up to 72 hours, I can run an 8 week and still pass a natty comp.


Just giving you hard time lol Carb cycling does wonders to a physique thats for sure.

Wow that looks good.

Are you running stainless brake lines coming off the masted cylinder or is it just my impression? If so how did you make a bubble flare on the end of the line? I didn't think that was possible with stainless.

you need to make a new thread when "finished" so people dont have to go through 50 pages of comments and bashings to see all the progress. i say " " on finished cuz we all know a project is never really finished.. I like it man i think your doing awesome work, the interior isnt my cup of tea but he concept is badass i love the big weels, body work and the small details like filling in the break calipers etc, keep doin what your doin, after all it is YOUR ride.

I did not know that was possible with a bubble flare. If I had known this I would have done my lines in stainless when I made custom lines for my line lock.

Did you have any difficultly bending the lines?

Very clean man I really like how you fabbed the radiator support to look like it was meant to be that way unlike others I have seen.

Do you do your own powdercoating? Awesome job!

It's not a FI build but that engine bay looks like it already has room for a truck manifold turbo.
