The frame is 5' wide, and 6' long.


A 5' x 10' on a 5' x 6' frame. I'm anxious to see it come together!
God Bless

It's 5-by-8. I'm going with as much material as possible, from stock, thus, 8' The body will overhang the frame 12" on each end.

Actually, after welding body mounts to the front/rear of the frame, it's now 6'4" long. :lol:

That makes sense. In the very first post, I believe you said 5x10, which is more overhang than I have seen to date. (Not that you couldn't do it, I just wanted to watch very carefully!)
