But it didn't start out like this.




We returned from our trip to Colorado Sept 2009 to find this waiting in the yard.

It needs a few little sumthuns--but it is a great start I do think.
Here is where we begin to take over the work started by trukmajik and dejello

Then you have not been in the Chat lately then :cool:

Glad to see you got it home finally Jon :thumbsup:
 






I'm not sure I know where to start, but hey, that's what you guys are for. :D
 






hmmm maybe break out the tube bender and start working on the front Bumper ?

does this thing even run and drive?
 






HAH! I forgot about that truck since you told me about it when I was there. Have fun!

Welcome home. Hope you and the Missus has a great time (and hi to Sheri from me).

Cheers,

Brad
 






THat's pretty sweet! i'm guessing the first things to do would be to make it either road legal if it's going to be driven.. or buy a trailer to make it a trailer rig. :thumbsup:
 






It needs a few little sumthuns

It needs a garage! Weather is kind of crazy in KS.

2 off road rigs now? Bring it to SMORR next month, lets see what it can do :)
 






Cool, Jon! Does it have lockers? I'm not seeing any air line.
 






...Paint it....No wait..:scratch:.. it makes my X more unique since it's not white..:p:

...I'm glad to see you got a hold of a first gen finally...Now the real fun begins...:burnout:
 






I'm not sure I know where to start, but hey, that's what you guys are for. :D

WTF? Turn the key drive it to some rocks and have fun... crazy guy. :)
 






That is an awesome looking rig. That should get you into trouble for sure. :D
 






Nice, an big convertible truck. You needed more stuff to play with, and more parts to paint.
