the last time I drove it it was hydro sm465/205


then I rebuilt the truck with a t-350 and 203


now its is hydro sm465 again with a 205


I dont have plans to twin stick it anytime soon, this isnt my off road rig:crazy:

started bleeding systems today, got the dash/guages and wiring in, also installed the roll cage and drilled holes.

more or less I am building what I use to have, which was a locked front and rear lifted convertable with nice paint....but I have no intention to trash it then turn it into a truggy, if it gets smashed..thats ok, but It will get repaired right away, for the front I even have to spare fenders I will be painting at the same time I paint the truck:wink1: ..if I kill a fender it gets replaced. also I chose to shoot a single stage so repairs are easy I also put the lockers and such in it so I dont have to push it so hard to take it places..



the buggy I am putting together will be the trail rig, 4 seater/big block/ doubler. coilovers yada yada..but I decided to be a little secretive, its should look familure when done :)

the daily driver and business vehicle is this mall crawler....

Thats about what I want mine to end up like. Look nice but still all business. One of those trucks that you see in a parking lot and say thats too nice to wheel but then you see out on the trails.
 
:D


nope


decided to spend the morning with my sisters and two nieces,


but I am at the shop now and ready to get down and dirty:waytogo:
 
damn i love that pic of what it used to be. maybe i will eventually convert mine to full convertible
 
the red full vert above was my old 75, not this truck


as for the cage, I scored it in a junk yard for 120.00, then added a few tubes here and there to beef it up

Shawn, i left my big orange cup there, Its on the table where you turn the corner to see the truck.. my dad will kill me if i dont get it back. haha... anyways, off to the shower for me gear oil mixed with brake fluid smells good but not good enough to sleep in.. Nate:haha:
 
I was thinking of using it as a portable porto potty..its big enough:whistle:


I also just got the tags orders, 95.00 for two year...no emmisions testing required:saweet: :deal: :cool: :whistle: :ignore: ...


64.00 of that was fees for not keeping it current for 2 years:crazy:
