Hey pook are you and your bro. going to the tinbender jambo/clean up????

I was planning on it, we had a blast last year. I looked over the finances and need to hold off till next year cuz I just built a new shop and need to pay that bill down. I'll be coming down to Reiter soon and plan to run the ftoy in the Werock comp.

I'd agree.

He wanted a "pickup box" that he could sheet metal in easily. He has some flex shots of it now, I'll see if I can get them sent to me.

so my bro rushed through and finished up. He did a few things that I wouldn't of but hey its his... He got it painted at my dad's powdercoating shop.

It measures in just under 13 feet, 26 1/2 ish under the flat belly on 39.5" Iroks, 54 inches wide at the body, 74" total height and 120" wb. It looks huge in the pics since the cab is so stretched out for the 4 seats. Its hard to believe that its shorter than his old bobbed extra cab.

he said this with the pics...

"Now I need to do the fuel lines, brake lines, wiring, exhaust and drive shafts. I also have a few small things like hooking up the rear diff cam and the stereo. It'll have 2 4" marine speakers, 2 6" marines and a 10" sub hooked up to a MP3 player. I'm hoping to see you on the trails within a month"

so hopefully he does get it done soon cuz its getting nice out.
