When I finish my Class 1, it is going to look like the after picture to your Class 1's Before. I am going full out rusted Mississippi Hunting Truck with a 2 bay beagle crate in the rear. This was my Brother-in-laws. He passed last year so I am trying to copy his old truck I have only made it this far. That drop bed and opening tailgate was a bit*h.

So for now I decided to leave the paint. Maybe this winter I will blast it, fix a couple broken light mounts and have it Powder coated, but for now, I just did a rebuild with some minor changes. Moved the tranny to the skid and eliminated the transfer case. I've had to much trouble with those drive lines. Moded the interior to fit the new tranny position. it now has: -Axial tranny with Robinson Racing gears -Axial Axles with toobs, overdrive and all aluminum upgrades -Holmes BR-XL -Holmes 10T Puller -HS-7955TG steering front and rear -Axial Aluminum Shocks -Montrucks Stainless Steel Beadlocks -ProLine 2.2 TSLs -Assorted Scale stuff |
