and any update on those tires from treadwritght?

Justin

I am getting my plates through the state of Maryland, and I can't get new tires till I have some more $$ (just had my 3rd kid so cash it tight until Jan). The turret is going to be for show only, I will be able to put it on for a car show and then take it off for the ride home.

Niceee So it's gonna be an official plate. cops are gonna be so confused lol

and i understand being tight with money.. not being able to work with college blows

Good luck with the truck and fam

I was at a U of A party this weekend, and I was in the basement looking for brains, And I found a movie called Zombie Strippers, So, I borrowed it from them. One of the dumbest movies out there? heres the IMDB > http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0960890/

None the less. How heavy is herculiner? I was thinking of throwing a layer on my tent trailers me and my friends use for weekend getaways lol

That's awesome, how 'bout this?

*2-Stripe* · 11-26-2008, 05:06 PM

The liner wasn't too heavy, Id'e say about 10 to 15 lbs a gal.

I love that truck but Those wheels look like a rough ride to me.

so how is the new ZAPV? have any pics? Its been 1 day what the deuce...

Project_Exploder · 11-28-2008, 01:28 AM

Sadly my friend has dropped off the face of the earth, no contact what-so-ever, and mine is back in my possession and am not getting a new rig....yet

But....all ball joints have been replaced, so it rides smoother and will sell for more, and now the only thing wrong is the Trans and I still don't have the money to get it rebuilt.

Hopefully Texplorer keeps his X a little longer, cuz I have another potential buyer offering $3200, even with the blown trans

!!! Can't wait I hope he's legit!!!!

Project_Exploder · 11-28-2008, 01:33 AM

But...if by some act of god I get a couple hundred $$$ and a rebuilt trans, my ZAPV will be beautiful!!!

sounds good the more we have the better chance we have against the walking dead, on a side note we need our own zombie smilie.

like this one

Project_Exploder · 11-29-2008, 06:29 PM

YES!!! It's perfect Stripe! And a Ranger will come in handy cuz it has more cargo room and could also b a transport for survivors.

zhanx · 11-29-2008, 07:01 PM

or these

It could also work for supply runs into the cities for food water smokes and beer.

zhanx · 11-29-2008, 08:50 PM

oh yea we need the beer

this is the ranger i look at on friday

Project_Exploder · 11-29-2008, 10:18 PM

With some work it could be a ZAPV...

Idea on the ranger, if you do turn it into a ZAPV, do a full bed cage with "armor"

umm its got a topper on it and i kind of wanted to keep it

if it was solid i would do a huge ZAPV sticker on the side of it

how is in this, all the right markings and the lights on it

Project_Exploder · 11-29-2008, 11:24 PM

LOL at the big sticker idea, I had the same idea for my X!! I actually might go through with it though

*2-Stripe* · 11-30-2008, 07:50 AM

imfox · 11-30-2008, 10:46 AM

Well, hey! Can I be ZAPV member too? Askin since I don't have an explorer... but hey! My two ton hunk of metal has taken a good beating so far, zombies would stand no chance against me =D
