if you ever need help with your first gens just let me know Thumbs Up

Thanks, likewise, also if your going wheeling you should give me a call. Got that yellow truck to start and all, a bit lean though.

Looking good so far. Definitely prefer plate bumpers over tube bumpers, but I am biased.

And finished

this is the weirdest, coolest, most unique truck i have ever seen... way to just go out and build! im starting to just 'go and do' instead of sitting and thinking, and thinking, and overthinking...

this truck just shows that anything is possible in the right hands haha! cheers!

Now with 37s and a blown transmission. Hopefully I'll get a new transmission today.

Awesome for the 37s

, lame... about the trans

.

Have you even thought about putting windows in the rear x-cab part? I would imagine that is a huge blind spot?

sokoji · « **Reply #98 on:** Mar 26, 2011, 10:18:43 AM »

Yes they are pretty bad blind spots, I have thought about making windows but I'm pretty burnt on the project and just want to wheel it. Considering cutting the top off and making a canvas top or a removable hard top or something along those lines.

Hey do you have any pictures of the inside of the cab. I was kind of curious what your back seat looks like.

Built a simple bumper.

Nice. I am thinking about doing something like that on my 4runner. Simple yet effective.

Cool project. I am also in SE Portland just getting started on my benz swap. Goin in a 79 long bed. I commend you on the extensive body mods, looks cool. I am using the om602 engine with an r150f tranny. Nice work on the bumpers. kinda makes me want to get rid of my tube bumpers and build some plates.
