I picked up the explorer for $300 CND and bought a 92 XLT at an auction that was totaledfor $350. The hit one was an eddie bauer edition with interior like new.

i gutted both trucks engine and interior to swap into one truck. The old interior in the explorer was road rage red so i had to get rid of that. I only kept the headliner, dash, and carpet red everything else was replaced with tan.

The body wasn't that bad i repaced 2 doors, a fender,and the rear hatch. i intalled the runningboards and molded in a hood scoop. I installed the valance from a 97 ford ranger. and sanded the **** out of the truck.

I painted the inside of the truck to match the outside. i will be priming it and painting it over the weekend so look for new picks.

Im going to paint it over the weekend. Let me know what you guys think.

That web site makes me nauseous. Also, why do have a picture of someone else's truck at the top of your page? Looks pretty good right now, hard to tell until it's painted.

cool hood, where is the scoop from ?

It'd probably look pretty good painted. What Color?

OK this is ment as polite critisism.
Your site gives me a headache. Too much moving and such Going on.
That intrepid is still stock. Just dressed up a little. The explorer is looking good. You will however find that paint doesnt stay on that plastic bumper part. Good luck with future mods

The paint will stick to the Air dam, you just have to know what your doing.
I used less hardner on my air dam to allow for any flex. worked out great for me.

Hey Virtual.....Good job on the Explorer..you took on a big job..swapping all the parts around.
Your web site looks good....it takes awhile to download for me because of my cheapo 56k dial up.
