new dd

[224racin]

sadly to say after 30 years the porno van is probly leaving saturday, feller is coming to look at it, picked up the replacement tonite. ive come to a compromise cause the ihc is more dd doable vs the van and also i can get it in safely in parking decks and parkin lots(hospitals and biloxi "charities") without hitting the "low clearence pipe". its a ground up restored scout II, has 31 x 10.50's, tow pkg, original metal removable top. got it from an ihc collector that is the vp at the bham ihc truck dealer, this will be my new dd and vacation ride. ive already started building a teardrop to camp in. its foundation is a 5 x 8 trailer frame

all i plan to do is put the chrome trim pieces on it and the graphics and roll with it

Damn Shillet, nice ride. So much better than the shaggin wagin. Now get the jeep finished so you are not tempted to take that one off road.

I like how clean it is personally. why trim it out and take away from the clean aspect?

ya i liked the porno van but it was just plain big land yacht. besides i got an older dodge van that needs some work also, its a '70 model dodge but its the short one.......

if i take this one off the pavement it will be a leaf lookin ride, i dont even plan to lock it either, if i do then ill want to go up in the air and 40's lol, then she will be top heavy as hell....... i will be doing an ultimate adventure with it in febuary to ocean springs for the mardi gras parade lol...

ya im tryin to get it back to original form with the trim pieces, it actually didnt have the wheel well trim, just the long trim that goes from the front to rear. it did come with spare NIB parts, also has the roof rack for the top, wich i may leave it off and just go with a modern day roof rack......

i may work some on the spot that needs repairing in the floor, on both sides around the body mount bolt.....i read on binderfiles forum that thats a normal spot for repairs, should tank much, may go ahead and rhino line the floors also, cause this summer, the top is staying off. ill have it at the srr this year, hopefully with the teardrop to camp in

ps its a '77 model and a 4 speed, some couldnt belive i let the porn van go but it wont be for long, u know me, ill have another shag wagon sometime or another wether it be shag in the tear drop or shag in the other van
