Hltoppr,

The seats look real nice.

I can't wait to see it with the new wheels and rubber.

 

[Hltoppr]

Speaker,

I liked the ads too...just kinda figured that it really wasn't the "Chris White Services/Welding" truck any more....so off they'll come.....

I am using a buddy's POR15, otherwise I'd order it from NAPA here in town, or Quadratec online...a little goes a long way, so I'd order a pint for the rack...that's all you'll need. About $20-$30 bucks...

I may try and fit the new rubber on the rig once the spacers get here....and I really needed to modify my garage anyway....:ylsmoke:

Faded signs like that are all the rage in hot rods. There's guys who've perfected making newly painted such signs look 50 years old.
You're on the cutting edge of a new Overlander fad........

....yeah....midnight modifications right under the HOAs nose....:sombrero:

Yeah, Andrew you owned the first "RatRod Troopy".

 

[Hltoppr]

LOL, I don't know if "rat rod" is really what I'm lookin' for in this build....if only it were somethin' I found really, really cool...like "Dinkum's Outback Tours", or something....

-H-

 

[Desertdude]

hmmm... time to design your own?

We all have plans for you :elkgrin:

 

[Hltoppr]

well...at least the area on one side is primered and ready.....

-H-
