    hey guys... crazy ideas at work here. i was recently told i need to make a project for my welding class. as i have recently moved out to the country and nearly hit 5 deer last month with my truck, im thinking mini bull bar for my gtp.. 1 1/2 tube thats powder coated? perhaps chromed? but since i have acess to cheap metal, tube bender, saws, you name it we have it in class. any ideas or even if yall think it would even look somewhat neat.. it would at least save a lil damage if i did hit a deer. in my truck i may try to hit them though... lol

    Build it to go behind the bumper before the radiator that way no one ever has to look at it, but its there if you need it.

    Build a dolly for engine/trans that can be taken apart to accomodate one or the other or incorporate both.

    If you are a true car guy, you'll have spares or need to move yours out of the engine bay at some point.
