Freightliner FLD 120 SD

[k100]

I started  this back in 2014 with a move and kids moving back home this got boxed and selfed until this past Labor Day weekend when I was going through boxes upstairs I came across it , it was in pretty bad shape so though I would start a rebuild on it .

the front spring on the right side was bent upward and the frame was broken .

with some luck I was able to straighten the spring with a heat gun and was able to get both springs off the frame .

The first 2 photos are from 2014 the last 3 is a mock up of what I’m going for .

Thanks 

Be safe

That’ll be a neat project, glad to see it make a comeback. Those set back Freightliners have such a mean look. I like it.
