Mock Tender
Adventurer
Looking at making the plunge on a newer FG. Talked to a dealer that liked the idea of what I was trying to do; but wanted to forewarn me that I would need to probably get a certificate of design from a body/box installer approving my design and install for insurance companies and against any possible litigation in the event of an accident.
Talked with the company that did Carl Hunter and Biggoolies Bigfoot Fuso mating- he apparently knows his stuff, but has no credentials and no interest in writing up a "proof of design" for a lack of a better word.
The insurance brokers that I have talked to so far can't find it in their policies the need to show integrity of design and build. Seems like they would.
I am very interested in what have been the experiences of the "build your own" and the "mount the already built" members have seen.
Also- anybody know any good frame makers out in the western US- preferably Colorado- but open.
