After 3 years of work and the help of many people my axles are as far as I can go until I put them in. Still have to figure out the shock perches and steering after I install them. The little 292 is coming along nicely.

It's a little too good. The casters roll so nice I have to chalk the wheels sometimes. I made it mostly out of an old cherry picker.

No I'm still trying to find someone to do the block work and make the head fit. The last few weeks I have been out of state making truck money. Probably going to cost around $4k. Just a guess. Leo S. is helping me out.

You keep some very good company. I learned a lot from his book when building our 292.
