Default -R2J Kustoms Lil' Courier "Shop Truck"-

Didn't really need a new Class 2 rig, but happened to score a Ford Courier body from Rodney(RPMJ) at our last swap meet. Thanks Rodney. I new I had to do something cool with it. So first thing first, I contacted Mike at Crawler Graphics for a kick ass paint job. I think he pulled that off!

Yep it does look like a mudder.
Thanks! The bumper was stolen off of my Hilux truggy. Does work well with this too.

I forgot just how cool the Pro Line Courier body was and I need one of those front bumpers!

The 3six scale accessories will look great in/on this build.

Cool shop truck Shon! Damn man you got a machine that produces time? Don't know how you get so many things built. If you do have one of those machines, can I borrow it?

I've always liked the Couriers. I bet I know where you can get one of those bumpers. Norms stuff looks good on any build!

Not really sure yet. Thought about making something that looks stock or nothing at all.

Thanks Dave! If I do find one of those machines, I'll be certain to pass it along to you. It may look like I get a bunch done, but not, I'm always behind.
